Thanks Richard for the reply, you seem to be awake at all hours of the day 
and night!
For the time being I do not need other icons than the old ones. I can live 
with either the nice new Rev icon or the old MC one. However, I was 
wondering whether I had overlooked something since the MC IDE did not 
supply the same icon on the two platforms (that is - why did not the 
MetaCard icon appear automatically on Windows as well?). Will you fix this 
sooner or later?
