icoutilz v1.5 Copyright (C), 2005, High Speed Software. All rights reserved. http://www.high-speed-software.com/icoutilz/ This program examines and manipulates ICO files. The "-merge" command packs multiple BMP and ICO files into a single ICO file. The "-split" command extracts the images from an ICO file into separate BMP files. The "-info" command prints basic information about the images in an ICO file. usage: icoutilz -merge {file.ico | file.bmp mode}... -output icofile icoutilz -split -bmp file.ico... icoutilz -split -ico file.ico... icoutilz -info {file.ico | file.bmp}... where mode is one of: -opaque No transparency mask. -border The most frequent color from the border of the image is used as the transparent color. -lowerleft The color of the pixel in the lower left corner is used as the transparent color. -pixel x y The color of the pixel at (x,y) is the transparent color. (0,0) is the lower-left corner. -palette n The nth color in the palette is used as the transparent color. The file.bmp must use a color palette. Numbering starts at 0, so the first color is 0. -rgb #rrggbb The transparent color in hex. -rgb r g b The transparent color in decimal, 0-255. -bmp file 'File' is a 2-color BMP file that is used as the transparency mask. The "-split -bmp" command extracts the images into files named: filename_wxhxb.BMP and filename_wxhxb_mask.BMP where: w=width, h=height, b=bits-per-pixel. The "_mask" file is the transparency mask for the image. A counter is appended to the filename if there is more than one image with the same width, height and bits-per-pixel. The "-split -ico" works like the "-split -bmp" command except it extracts the images into ICO files so there are no "_mask" files.
