***************************************************************************** * * * Icon2Brush * * by * * Kevin Pryor * * * ***************************************************************************** Usage: Icon2Brush infofile Do not end infofile with ".info". Icon2Brush is a utility which will convert an icon to an IFF Brush. These brushes can be used with a program such as DPaint. To use it, simply (in CLI) type: Icon2Brush infofile This will result in a file called infofile.br1. If the icon is NOT an animated icon (those icons who have different "pictures" shown when selected), you will see the message "Alternate image not a graphic image.". If the icon you have selected IS an animated icon, two files, infofile.br1 and infofile.br2, will be created, and no message will appear. If you use a path extension in you infofile filename, the .br files will be written in those paths. For example, if you type Icon2Brush DF1:Foobar/WetDog, WetDog.br1 will be written in directory DF1:Foobar.

Addendum - I came across another program which does the same thing as Icon2Brush. It is called ITB. I was distraught to find out that it is much "fancier" than mine, also. But, on the two icons I attempted to convert to IFF files, FACC.info and the Online 2.0 Disk.info, it did not work correctly. I don't know if there is another version of ITB yet, but I've yet to find an icon which Icon2Brush will not convert.
