ilbmtoicon

converts one or two ilbm image files into an amiga icon file which will contain both old style (pre 3.5) image data and new style image data (IFF ICON attached at the end).

can also convert one or two png image files into a PNG icon file (normal PNG image with an extra icOn chunk). If two PNG images are specified, the resulting .info file will simply result in both images being joined together.
