The Xcode icon composer doesn't seem to exist any more in modern
versions of Xcode, or at least if it does then it's well hidden and
certainly doesn't live at the top-level path at /Developer where web
pages still claim it can be found.
There is a free software 'libicns' and associated command-line tools,
but they're large, complicated, picky about the exact format of PNGs
they get as input, and in any case a needless extra build dependency
when it turns out the important parts of the file format can be done
in a few dozen lines of Python. So here's a new macicon.py, and
icons/Makefile additions to build a demo icon for OS X PuTTY, as and
when I finally get it working.
Also I've deleted the static icon file in the neglected 'macosx'
source directory, because this one is better anyway - the old one was
appalling quality, and must have been autogenerated from a single
image in some way.
