If you're new to FractalVision, try the tutorial within the on-line help.

Many fractal icons are included in the FVW.EXE program. To choose which icon
appears in your Windows program group, select File/Properties and Change Icon
within Program Manager.

Note: FractalVision does not add an association for FRT or IFS files. These are both 
fractal templates, you need to associate these files yourself. 

To make an association so FractalVision will load files that you double click
on inside file manager;
 
1 Start file manager 
2 Highlite a file with an .IFS or .FRT extension
3 Click on File or alt F 
4 Click on Associate
5 Click on Fractal Vision or Type in c:\fvwin\fvw.exe (or what ever path you used)  
6 Click on ok

Repeat steps 1 through 6 for other file types like GIF PCX and BMP that you want
to double click on and have FractalVision load up.
