It is, perhaps, overly verbose, depending on what your goals are. But even you have to admit that it's easy to see what the resulting icon will look like. (All the more if you change your font to a 2-pixel by 2-pixel fixed-width font.) > (i.e. I can take an ascii-art drawing, and create a > binary icon from it). By hand? Wow. ;) I think it comes down to who we think the audience is. If the audience is Joe-Notepad-User trying to create one of these "Special IniFile Thingies" for his website, then allowing him to hand-edit the icon (without running any other tools) might be a priority. If we would rather write a utility to create one of these files for him, then a more-terse/easier-to-parse format would be better. I don't really mind either way, since I won't be the one implementing it. In addition to working on another piece of Plucker, I've just become rather busy at work, and expect to remain so until at least the end of this week. :( Later, Blake. _______________________________________________ plucker-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-dev
