I have 1.3 on a couple of my machines and it's dirt simple to get an icon for files. You can "copy as" in Dopus any icon for a similar file and change the name to the file that has no icon. If you have Dopus on the a500 there should even be a button that says "icon info" on it and the right click on that button will reveal a button to creat an icon for the file which is highlighted. Not a problem. I do like the later OSs that gave you the ability to supply icons for all files in the View drop down. Pretty neat stuff. I STILL prefer my Amiga to any other OS I have used. Maybe it's the same kind of mentality that won't let me sell my 1960 Willys pick up even tho it hasn't moved since three years ago. I just KNOW that when I put on the brake master cylinder and water pump the old beast will fire up smokily but rumble down the drive, just like my vanilla A2000 w/OS 1.3 will fire up and me and Moria 3.0 will wile away the afternoon.... :-D
