Base64 Images

[Chris Butterworth]

Could base64 encoded images be used?

[Michael Klement]

fileicon supports the image formats natively supported by Cocoa; base64-encoded data is therefore not supported.

However, you can use the base64 utility to decode your data and use something like the following:

base64 -D base64-image-file.txt > image-file
fileicon set some-folder image-file
