Icon Basher - Removes pesky icons from .trk files

Setup Program - Includes all the latest controls your system might not have (1.3 Meg). Unzip the files to a temporary directory and run the setup.exe.
IconBasher.exe - Just the executable at 36k. Probably all you need if you have XP and the latest updates.
Destructions - I could not find a way to determine what the icons setting was at the mission start. Therefore, you must set the state of the icons at the start. All the program does is add enough icon toggle commands near the top of the [$$$record] section to turn the icons off. It then replaces all the icon toggle commands in the track with one of the following three user selectable commands...
- External Padlock, Enemy Air [Default F6]
- Either Speed Up Or Decrease Time [I forgot which]
- A Null Command [I believe this works but I'm not sure]
Keep in mind that if you choose one of the first two, your views or the time compression will be screwed up in the track so you must select manual control of those before starting the track.

There is neither an entry created in your "Start" menu or a desktop icon setup. You must handle that the way you see fit. Gimpy little programs like this don't deserve things like that.

Version Swapper - Allows quick swapping between versions 1.21 and 1.22 (VBScript)
