"FunIcons":

The various screen-hacks and graphic demos available in the public-domain 
are a great way to show off the Amiga.  However, one problem with many of 
them is that they can't be run from the WorkBench, usually because the authors
simply didn't bother to make icons for them.  Well, here's my answer... 
a set of icons for some of the more popular screen-hacks and demos that I 
happen to like...

The programs these icons are used for are well-known enough that you should 
either already have them (if you don't, where have you been??), or be able to 
find them on a good network like PeopleLink's AmigaZone or your friendly
neighborhood Amiga BBS:



The following icons are TOOL type. Just put them into the same directory as
the program of the same name (e.g. "Viacom.info" goes with "Viacom").

Viacom.info
Suck.info                
WBLander.info            
Melt.info                
Scat!.info               
Grains.info              
RobotRoff.info           
Oing.info                
AmiBug.info              
BenchQuake.info          
Blur.info                
JumpBench.info           
Trails.info              
Tilt.info                
LPM.info            
FlowWeb.info             
Stars.info               


The following icons are PROJECT type. The programs they correspond to either
crash if run directly by icon, or require an argument. These icons can be
used to run these programs via the public-domain utility "XIcon2".
(I leave it to you to obtain "XIcon2" and read its documentation to
figure out how to use it... and note that this is for the PUBLIC-DOMAIN 
version "Xicon2", NOT the Commodore version with the similar name of "XIcon".
I understand that with WB 1.3 CBM will officially release their version under
the new name of "IconX" to avoid further confusion).

These icons are set up as follows:

	a. The tool-type is set to ":c/XIcon" which assumes that "XIcon"
	   is located in the "C" subdirectory of the root-directory of the
	   disk on which the icon is located. Change this to your own
	   desired path.

	b. The icon is associated with an ASCII execute-file that must be 
	   located in the same directory as the icon itself. The ASCII files
	   I use are included here, and give an explicit path that must be 
	   changed for the particular disk YOU place it on. For example, the 
	   files I include here assume a disk named "FUN!!" that has 
	   subdirectories (drawers) named "ScreenHacks" and "Demos", since that
	   is how I have my own disk set up.
	   
	   (Read the docs to XIcon2 for the gory details... and yes, it
	    could have been made a lot cleaner by using the "LocDir" function 
	    of XIcon2, but I'm lazy...)


	ICON:			Execute File:		Used to run:

	RunStrobe.info 		RunStrobe		Strobe

	UpsDn.info               UpsDn			UD

	ABlaster.info		ABlaster		AB ("AtariBlaster")

	Startle1.info		Startle1		Startle
							(plus desired text-file)



Since some of these icons have been shamelessly adapted from existing icons
from various sources, the icons included in this file are released into the 
public domain by:
