The icon is rather fancy, with what appears to be a graphic in the middle right hand side, and “LATEX” in large letters across the bottom half. This icon may have had a BBEdit defined icon fairly recently and if so I'm not sure when it changed. If I look at the same file in the finder, I see an icon which may be an image of the first lines of the document, plus “TEX” in small letters on the bottom. I don’t care much what the icon looks like as long as it opens in BBEdit. What’s strange are the inconsistencies.

Ah ha, that did it! Now the icon in the finder looks like the one in the dock. Thanks!

I wonder which application this icon is associated with though. Is it possible that it’s not a BBEdit icon but still opens with BBEdit? I could attach an 8KB .jpg graphic, but I’m not sure if that’s allowed here.
