Benny was right. A newly compiled XWin.exe is 2 KiB larger than 4.2.0-42, which accounts for the 2 KiB increase in the size of X.ico.
Additionally, I was looking at the icon on the upper left-hand corner of an X term, not the tray icon... the tray icon is indeed 20 pixels by 20 pixels. Finally, the tray icon did change under magnification from Test91 to my newest build. So, it is using the 24 x 24 icon to generate the 20 x 20 icon, rather than the 16 x 16 or the 32 x 32.
However, my 24 x 24 icon still looks crappy when scaled down to 20 x 20... not sure if it looks better than the 16 x 16 scaled up to 24 x 24 though. It really is a close call.
Can somebody else spend some time on X.ico with the free icon editor I found and fix this once and for all?
-----------------------------------------


Not to be silly, but instead of hand scaling/etc have you just
tried running "xlogo -geometry 20x20" and PrntScrn'ing the window
and pasting it into the .ico?



Earle,

Sorry to be nit-picky but I really struggle to read this ---------- Original Message ------------- mails...
Is this your mail client that does this?
