I'm trying to add, as part of an installer app, the ability to
reproduce any original custom folder icons in OSX (and perhaps OS9 as
I think it uses the same mechanism). In other words, I would like to
be able to suck up the custom folder icon information along with
everything else so that it can be restored when the folder is spit out
elsewhere.
If I understand correctly, the folder icon is controlled by an
invisible file named "Icon"&CR (often referred to as "Icon\r") which
contains an icon resource ("icns",-16455). Additionally, I believe the
folder itself needs to have a flag set in order for it to accept this
icon.
I can't seem to touch or otherwise get a peek at the resource inside
the icon\r file without first renaming it to something without the
carriage return.
I haven't tried to figure out the folder flag yet. Any suggestions
gladly accepted.
