[comp.sys.atari.st] Alex's Icons...

Flash@UMASS.BITNET (Rick Flashman) (03/21/87)

Anyone else out there have had problems with the ICONLOADER that came
in the spring issue of start?

I got hooked on it, drew up some neat icons. (3.5 floppy, little
campfire for trash, and so on...) and have been using it since.

BUT! I realized, that over the last couple of days, some programs have
mysteriously bombed. I didn't give them much thought. Well, tonight
I tried good ole K-Switch. And guess what? Both FLASH and UNITERM will
crash into several bombs and lock up the system IF you have custom
icons loaded. (I removed LOADICON alone, and all fixed!)

Alex, any idea why this happens? I was able to nail down the problem
by booting only with K-switch and LOADICON and then without LOADICON
alone.

Any chance of getting this fixed? Or is this, being software is a magazine,
no_upgrade_avail stuff?

Now that I got hooked on my new nifty icons, I got to get rid of them,
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Oh well, that is life.
