Thanx for the tip, but the guidelines have little to do with my
question. I already know what I want the icon to look like, and I
want a custom one per each and every document (since the icon is a
preview). My question was mainly technical – how do I easily achieve
setting a custom icon to a specific file/folder/package?
A file with a custom icon must contain a resource ( 'icns', -16455 )
and have its kHasCustomIcon bit set.
A folder with a custom icon must contain a file named "\pIcon\r"
within it with a resource ( 'icns', -16455 ) and have the folders
kHasCustomIcon bit set.
My x-plat question, was to see if there's a way to use some kind of
x-plat format for the icon, such as tiff or jpg.
No, there is not.
