They were Windows icons. You can get fully extracted, binary versions of
these icons from the rat.org ftp site. OS/2 conversions are also
available on the ftp site. I don't recall the procedure for using custom
icons under Windows and Win-OS/2 (I do it so rarely) but I can help
anyone with using them in the Workplace Shell. Send any such queries
directly to me, not to the list.

As a reminder, binary files are not to be posted to the mailing list
(small ANSI pictures excepted). This is clearly stated in the new
subscriber intro text sent to recent new subscribers and posted to the
list for earlier subscribers. The person who posted the message
containing the BinHex files was advised to stop posting binary files to
the list.
