OS2ICONS is the largest single  collection od OS/2 icons.  OS2ICONS was
converted to OS/2 icons from ALLICONS (Windows 3 in WINNEW forum) by
Ron Beauchemin using the CVTICONS program found in the IBMOS2 library.

ALLICONS is the largest single collection of Windows 3 icons.
Compiled by Russell Mueller with the aid of an anonymous collaborator
and Keith Ledbetter's DUPICON program which identifies and eliminates
duplicate icons.
3300 ICONS (9/25/91)

3300 icons converted to OS/2 icons by Ron Beauchemin on 01/26/92

The collection has been broken into 3 parts to make it easier to
download. The 3 parts are:

OS2IC1.ZIP: Icons whose names start withe the numeral 0 - the letter G
278,854 bytes
1384 icons require 5.7 Megabytes of physical hard drive space.

OS2IC2.ZIP: Icons whose names start with the letters H - P
201,754 bytes
980 icons requires 4 Megabytes of physical hard drive space.

OS2IC3.ZIP: Icons whose names start with the letters Q - Z.
197,649 bytes
936 icons require 3.8 Megabytes of physical hard drive space.

The size specified above is due to the fact that even though each icon
file is only 766 bytes, DOS requires a full cluster (4096 bytes) for each
file.  All icons unZIPed require 13.5 Megabytes of physical drive space.

Each of the above files is a ZIP of ZIP files.  All of the icons with the name
A*.ICO have been ZIPed together in A.ZIP, all of the icons with the name B*.ICO
have been ZIPed together in B.ZIP, etc.  These ZIP files were then re-ZIPed into
the OS2IC1.ZIP, OS2IC2.ZIP and OS2IC3.ZIP files.  I apologize for the inconvenience,
but this technique produces the smallest possible files for maintaining the maximum
number of icons.  I recommend doing all unZIPing on a hard drive or a RAM drive for
maximum speed.  Do not try and unZIP them into the root directory!  The root directory
of disks, whether floppy or hard drive, can contain a very limited number of files
in the root directory: 112 files on low density disks, 224 on high density disks, and
512 files on hard drives.  Make a subdirectory called ALLICONS on your hard drive.
The user can then copy them on to floppies for later use and browsing.
Those who have tried unZIPing directly to floppies were very discouraged by the long
time of unZIPing (several hours).  Although the 3300 files would seem to use
766 bytes X 3300 = 2,527,800 bytes, in fact, due to the nature of file management
on disk drives (cluster sizes and all that stuff), they will consume 12 Megabytes
of hard drive space.  Your file manager such  as XTREE, QDOS, PCSHELL will only
show two and a half megabytes used, though.
