That's what I'd heard, but I tried adding a cicn to an app (the "cool
mac"), adding the cicn to its BNDL, and resetting the init bit and
the Finder didn't even copy the cicn to the Desktop file, so I think
whoever talked about "color icons" must have meant "colorized icons",
or 1-bit icons drawn in a color besides black (such as you specify
from the Finder "Color" menu).

Sorry; don't know of any cicn editors.
