Repo root:
https://iconized.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/iconized
Latest development code:
https://iconized.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/iconized/trunk
Particular releases:
https://iconized.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/iconized/tags/<release-tag>
Download area:

Build from source
--------------------------------------------------------------
0. Download and install WTL from http://sourceforge.net/projects/wtl
WTL 8.0 is latest one and is used to build official i-conized binaries.
1. Download source package from http://sourceforge.net/projects/iconized/
* OR *
Make a checkout from SVN repo (from trunk. for example)
cd <build-root> && svn co https://iconized.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/iconized/trunk iconized
2. Unpack source into build directory.
<build-root>
|- iconized-0.x.y
3. Download VirtuaWin SDK from http://sourceforge.net/projects/virtuawin
4. Extract SDK into directory named "sdk" within <build root> directory
As result, you have to get the following folder structure:
<build-root>
|- iconized-0.x.y
| |-iconized.vcproj
| |-<other sources>
|
|- sdk
|-Messages.h
|-Defines.h
|-<other SDK files>
5. Update build_info.txt file by one of the following:
a. run "make build_info" in <build-root>/iconized-0.x.y (Cygwin/Bash/Make is needed)
b. edit the file with your favorite text editor
6. Open iconized.sln using Microsoft Visual Studio 2003/2005 and build the solution.
Make sure that build_info.txt (see prev. step) is present, otherwise link stage will fails.
New executible (i-conized.exe) will be placed into <build-root>/iconized-0.x.y/Release/modules folder
7. Replace priveously installed i-conzied.exe in <VirtuaWin-istall-path>\modules
by newly-builded one
8. (Re)start VirtuaWin as ususal.
9. Enjoy!
Build from source: configuring with macro
--------------------------------------------------------------
Source some code disabled with macro. It is mostly untested/not_fully_supported code.
Here is the list of macro:
CSKIN_BUTTONS - enable buttons for old-style skin.
Not fully supported but kept due to historical reasons.
Do not enable these macro unless you are sure in 101% of what are doing.
I'm not even sure that the code will compilable if any of these macro is enabled.
