Can any one sugest how to use an alternative icon/p/r/bitmap editor to that
provided with the PM toolkit?

I thought of using the Microsoft Windows Paint package, saving a 2 colour image
of size say 120X120 in a .BMP format, but it failed to load into the PM icon
editor. Yet it is possible to load an icon produced by the PM icon editor into
the Paint package using this format.

Any suggestions then as to how to configure Paint (Or any other standard paint package, I
have access to several) so as to produce PM icon editor readable bitmaps for
either OS2 version 1.1 or 1.2?

	Thanks in advance,
