## Using the IconsExtract utility
==============================
This utility is a standalone executable, and it doesn't require any
installation process or additional DLLs. Just run the executable
(iconsext.exe) and start using it.
Immediately after you run this utility, the "Search For Icons" dialog box
will be appeared. In this window, you should select the files or folders
that you want to scan, and the resource types you want to find (icons,
cursors, or both). You can also filter unneeded icons and get only icons
that contains images with specific size and number of colors.
You have 2 main search options:
1. Select only single file. For example: C:\WINNT\System32\shell32.dll
You can manually type the filename in the text-box, or select it from
a dialog box by clicking the "Browse Files" button.
2. Select multiple filenames by using wildcard characters (? and *).
You can select the folder that you want to scan by clicking the
"Browse Folders" button. If you check the "Search Subfolders"
check-box, all the subfolders of the main folder will be scanned also.
For example: if you type "c:\*.*" in the filename text-box, and check
the "Search Subfolders" option, the IconsExtract utility will search
for icons in all folders and files of your "C:" drive.
Notice: Searching for icons in an entire drive might take a few minutes,
and consume a fair amount of system resources. However, you can always
stop the search by pressing the "Esc" key or by clicking the "Stop" menu
item in the top-left corner of the window.
In order to start the icons searching, press the "Search For Icons"
button. IconsExtract will search for icons according to your selection in
the "Search For Icons" window. After the search is finished, the
extracted icons will be appeared in the main window of IconsExtract
utility.
