Adding support for Haiku to SyncTERM (http://syncterm.net)... I've got a bitmap icon in icns and PNG formats that I would like to add to the binary after building, just curious what the easiest way to accomplish this is so it's not using the generic icon.
<Deuce>
It's not even close to "fitting in" with Haiku, but I think it's better than the default application icon box stack.
<Deuce>
It looks like there's an 8-bit-per-pixel format I can use for raster icons, but I can't seem to find documentation on that format anywhere.
<augiedoggie_>
that's the old BeOS style icons
<Deuce>
Yeah, looks like those are limited to 16x16 and 32x32, so maybe it wouldn't look any better than the default icon. :(

if you have a SVG it can be imported into IOM
<Deuce>
I do not have an SVG, and I'm no artist.
<Deuce>
The main reason I'm working on the Haiku support is that I previously had a user that did a Haiku build, but doesn't anymore (I knew him as art, and he hosted it on arfonzo.org), so I figured I could at least keep the support working in the new release of SyncTERM.
<Deuce>
Which, once I installed it in a VM, I was interested in getting it to suck the least amount possible. :D
<Deuce>
So I fixed up the default file paths to use find_directory() and hacked up a PackageInfo file, figured I'dd tack on the icon too.
<Deuce>
Speaking of find_directory(), I'm saving downloaded files to B_DESKTOP_DIRECTORY since it looks like that's what the web browser does, and I don't see a separate B_USER_DOWNLOADS or something.

you can ask on the forums

someone might whip up an icon for you
<Deuce>
Ah, I was briefly confused, couldn't find the forums from the community page... found then on the home page though. :D
