Icon issues (GLFW Windows)

| I know this has probably been asked a thousand times before, but how DO I change the icon for my Windows game? From what I have read, there are two ways... 1. Use a resource editor and edit the exe to add an icon 2. Open the project in VC and Add Item...and the select resource. I have tried both and (forgive my complete ignorance), 1. HOW exactly do I add the icon (I'm not quite as thick as that sounds)? What label should I give it to register as the application icon? Monkey, by default, doesn't add an icon resource to the exe for me to just change. 2. I am using VC Express 2010 and when I select add item, there is no Resource option to add. |

| Quick change of plan, had problems compiling on my Win8 machine using VC2010, so I have switched to MingW on Win8... still not sure how to change the icon though. |

| http://stackoverflow.com/questions/708238/how-do-i-add-an-icon-to-a-mingw-gcc-compiled-executable mingw has winres in the "bin" folder. for monkey, use the new (v76d) #CC_LIBS = "myicon.res" option. |

| Forgive me, please, but how does one use the #CC_Libs option? Thank you for your help. -_- |
