It's OS-specific.

how does it work with windows?

Its also compiler specific I think, your IDE should have options for it or you can use reshack to change it after its been compiled.

its a console-app, so reshack doesnt find anything

is there another possibility?

the universal method(all comilers, windows only)

:
add a file with rc as extension to tyour project, then this line:

Code: [Select]

1 ICON "your_ico.ico"then compile.
PS:use SnIco Edit to create new icon, or , or Icon Sushi to extract it from an executable.
