Hi!

> Can I redistribute the icons with exmh?

I think you can.

I took some icons from the archive "NeXT.XEmacs.tar.gz" by Jonathan 
B. Leffert <leffert@cs.uchicago.edu>; I cut some icons off a 
GnuStep-screenshot and resized them, others are rescaled icons I 
use on my desktop, taken out of the AfterStep distribution.

The only problem I see with these icons are the many colors they need: 
between 55 and 215 each... I have a 16bpp display and no problems, on 8bpp 
it may work - or not.

Finally, it's possible NeXT won't be very pleased, but I think, there are 
so much icons out there cutten off screenshots or taken from their OS, 
especially around AfterStep and WindowMaker...
I don't know the US-law in this purpose, but as the icons where modified 
by me and others, IMHO they cannot say anything anymore ;-)
