	ICO2BMP is a tool for converting icons to bitmaps (of the same name). It will automatically
convert one or a list of icon files to bitmap files giving the resulting bitmap files the same 
name as the icon files with a >bmp extension. ICO2BMP is also a handy tool for see you icon
files. By moving to a directory with multiple icon files you can use the arrow ketys to move
through the list of icons while seeing each as the selection bar highlights the icon name.
