Hi folks,

may be a FAQ, but I can't find the answer: 

I would like to have some self-defined document icons, let's say for TIFF  
files in the File Viewer. Is it possible, to write a _very_ simple  
application only for overwriting the document-icon defined in Icon for  
TIFF?

This is what I have done: 
* With IB: building a simple application with a self defined document icon  
for TIFF.
* Installing the app in /LocalApps
* deleting every other tool for TIFF (eg. Icon)
--> The new document icon shows in the file viewer. That is fine, that is  
what I want!
* reinstalling Icon.
--> The old document icon (defined by Icon) appears again. That is not  
fine, that is not what I want!

So, the first question with other words: Who knows about the strategy of  
the Workspace Manager for binding document icons to files? It it  
/NeXT/appcache? Is it the date of the application? Is it magic?

Answers and hints are appreciated. TNX

BTW: I am using 2.1   :-(
