I've encountered this before...especially since I started using an
icon editor that would save my modified icon file without the 'd'
(delete) protection bit set for the file. Do a 'list' command and
check for a line like:
tools.info 934 ----rwed 10-Mar-90 21:02:21
^
----------------------------------------|
If that 'd' is missing, then the 'snapshot' function won't re-write
your icon file with the new screen locatons. Use the Protect command
(I *think* - I use SKsh, and it has 'chmod' ) to set the delete
protection bit ON. Then the snapshot _should_ work.
Hope this does the trick!
