Convert ICO to UIL

The ICO file extension, standing for "Icon", is integral to Microsoft Windows for storing icons of different sizes and color depths. Its primary use is to display graphical representations of executable programs, files, and folders within the Windows operating system. The ICO format's origins trace back to the early versions of Windows, evolving over the decades to support enhanced resolutions and alpha transparency. Today, ICO files ensure visually consistent and scalable icons that maintain their appearance across various display settings, aligning with modern user interface standards.

The UIL file extension stands for User Interface Language and is associated with the X-Motif UIL Table. It is a plain text file format used by the UIL compiler to create user interfaces for the X Window System. UIL files define menus, buttons, dialog boxes, and other graphical user interface components. Introduced by The Open Group, this format allows developers to describe the initial state of a user interface, including widgets, resources, and callbacks. The UIL file is compiled into a UID file, which can be accessed by Motif Resource Management functions within an application.
