[comp.windows.open-look] Filemgr questions

pkc@scs.carleton.ca (Peter Choynowski) (02/15/91)

   I have a number of questions, and I hope you will be able to help me with:

     - Can one change the wastebasket icon ( using adb if I have to ) ?

     - What is the format of the .filemgrrc file ?  I can not save the
       setting for Tool Properties.Longest Filename ?

     - Can one change the filemgr icon for a directory ?

     - File .filetype uses $OPENWINHOME variable, and I would like to specify
       the location of some of my custom icons using $HOME.  Can this be 
       done ?

Thanks,
Peter

No.  According to the terms of the license agreement signed with Xerox,
Sun is required to ship all workstations with the ugliest wastebasket icon
in the industry for the next ten years.  I hate it too.
