How do I set an icon to a folder from Clipboard or png file

Hi all,

at the end of a process (started with a home made application) that set file locations in the front window, I have to set an icon to that window.

at this moment, I have the icon as a 128 x 128 image in the Clipboard _AND_ as a png file (in the front window).

'till now, I set manually the icon (usually after a script that set the front window item locations; place the items on pre-determined locations in the window, set the background window image, etc.).

when you have to do that dozen of times, it start to be a bit boring and so I was wondering if it is possible - using AppleScript - to  set the front window icon programatically FROM the clipboard or a png image file.

I know it is possible to do it using an icon family (if I read correctly the dictionary), but from an image...

Anyone, any help ?

TIA,

Emile
