All right.  I give up.  The messages describing how to install Facade were
probably lost in the "worm" mess (lines from the US to Europe were down for
almost a week)... anyway, all I can find is replies-to-explanations stating
how nice a thing Facade is.

So, please someone, could you please explain in simple terms what to do
to get a icon for disks (make it easy, I program PC's by profession :-).
Have I understood correctly, for each disk you want to have it's own icon,
you must have the corresponding named ICN# in the Facade init resource
fork ?  I even tried naming a floppy disk Moof, but it didn't turn to a
dead-cow-connected-to-appletalk (pray tell me, how did this connection
happen in the first place ?)  Or am I totally wrong about the use and
utility of Facade ?
