Set Document Icon from Command Line

Hi List,

I was sent here from the Installer-Dev list with the following question:

Is there a way to set the document icon from the command line? I am able to set a folder icon by copying the "Icon^M" file into the directory, but have not found a way to do this for a file/document. I know about the 'hidden' rsrc/ sub-folder attached to every file, and am comfortable using the Rez and DeRez CLI tools, but their man page did not help...

Currently I do it manually by doing a Get Info, then pasting, but would like to automate the build + release process.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks,

   -k.
