Aut2exe Compile Icon Directive

[adrian@…]

Hello,

Firstly, I apologize if this might be considered something under the never-to-be-included "New Opt()/AutoItSetOption() flags" category. I searched the forums and found nothing pertaining to this.

I was thinking a good feature to add would be some kind of directive which can be put in a script which would specify an icon to be used by Aut2Exe during compilation of the output executable.

I realize that a custom icon already may be chosen from within the Aut2Exe GUI and command line, but it is sometimes necessary to have different icons for each of multiple compiled AutoIt3 executables, specifically ones which reside in the system tray. It is a bit inconvenient to have to go into the Aut2Exe GUI every time to change the output executable icon, especially when there is constant development occurring on the scripts in question. I could write batch files to handle the different icons, but I think more users would potentially benefit from an icon inclusion directive.

#icon "path/to/icon" (or something similar, perhaps)

AutoIt Wrapper can already do this. If you don't use that, write your own pre-processor.
