This program is to convert icons from the Win32 format into the OS/2 format
(v1.2).
Multiple images are supported. In cases of 16x16 and/or 32x32 sizes, 
respectively, 20x20 and/or 40x40 sizes are generated additionally.

Usage:

winico <win file> <OS/2 file> (*.ico extension is expected)

or 

winico -d <dir name> (here the program grabs all *.ico files it finds in the 
directory and converts them into the OS/2 format placing the files with the 
same name under a directory that is created at the place where winico was 
executed)
