[net.micro.mac] Suggestion for Idle users

Idle is a very nice program and an improvement over previous Sleep-like
DA's (mine included).  There is an easier way to make the icon distinctive
depending on the application running underneath, however: set the word
following 'ICN#' to 128, and it will use the icon of the current application
(most applications, anyway).  If you put an ICN# with ID 128 in your System
file, it will be used if the application does not have its own icon.

Ah, blown away once again by Apple software.

Could someone send me or post the desk accessory installer utility.  I would 
like to install the idle desk accessory...it sounds very nice.

Thanks in advance.
