I converted the TIFF icons to the appropriate format and I put them in
a single file (mtexicon.dll) for convenience. You can use the Program
Manager to select any icon from those in the DLL.

I made two versions of each original icon: the first version is
identical to the original; in the second version, I modified the
"outside" background to assume the color of the workspace; to see
what I mean, use a non-white background color and you will see the
difference.

The coloured icons in the PixMap format are converted into Windows
BitMap format (using the tool xpm2bmp).
Finally I put the colour icons in the file "ctexicon.dll".
I've got of the BMP files (because they are only intermediate in the 
process) and distribute the corresponding ICO files (which can be 
used immediately). There are cases where it is more convenient to
use the icons directly instead of the DLLs (if for example you want 
only a few icons).

I also made three minor changes in the bitmap colors: the tex-s and
latex-s icons used black letters on a blue background (at least that's
what is displayed under windows), which is quite hard to read. I changed
the background to light-blue which is more readable. Similarly, the dvi
icon uses a brown lion outline on a black background; the problem is that
the outline has a width of one pixel and the lion is barely recognizable
because of the lack of contrast. I changed it to a yellow outline.
