This doesn't work for me either.

Style JChat*" IconOverride, Icon nedit.xpm

JChat is an in-house java chat app, and comes up with a really small
icon, suitable for taskbasrs ala KDE and GNOME. (Some of my best
friends like those things, I don't ;). But for *real* icons it's too
small. Problem with this one is, it sets its icon at runtime or
something... I'm gonna have to go take a look-see in that java source
and see if I can fix it.

Just tested another very reluctant java app, and it seems to compy now
:)

Any idea why the IconBackgroundRelief and IconBackgroundPadding are
honoured by some icons and not by others? Does this have to do with a
pixmap being transparent or not?

Thank you all.

Ian.
