Me too. I'm definitly unable to implement this. I'm very happy that there is a
solutions or this . :-)

thanks for providing this great work. I've got already the details of the win32
icon format (see http://services.simac.be/vnc/single/msdn_icons.htm for more
informations), but unfortunally I'm lost with the icon_pixmap format of the
XSetWMHints call. I've found very much informations about pixmap in general in
the internet, but are lost to retrieve a detailed specification of the this
format.  Does anyone have a pointer for this ?

Cheers
Ralf
