	be sorted/cleared/restored or added from the tool
	types of other icons.

	3. Configurable font for icon information window
	4. MultiUserFilesystem support to set file owner.
	5. The icon type may now be changed
	6. Drawer information can compute the size of the contents
	   of a drawer (also number of files and sub-directories)
	7. Image remapping
