DESCRIPTION

     ForceIcon is an utility mainly for users of CD-ROM drives
     or users of networking software capable of sharing devices
     and icons. Since one can not snapshot the position of a
     volume's icon (on read-only media), nor replace it by a
     user-defined one, I wrote this utility. ForceIcon allows
     you to set the position of a disk's icon and/or replace
     it by a different image/icon which doesn't have to be a
     disk.info file. All types of ".info" files may be selected.
     Special features include inheritance of device specific
     settings, specifying the root drawer`s size/position
     and display flags/modes. ForceIcon may even change the
     look and position of AppIcons.

NEW FEATURES

     - Fixed severe bug in conjunction with ToolManager

     - Add NewIcons icons

     - Fixed problems with determining whether an old version
       of ForceIcon (non AppIcons supporting) is running

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS

     Only OS 2.x and up
     MUI (MagicUserInterface) version 7 (MUI 2.0)
