OS/2 Icon is an icon format related to OS/2 BMP, and sometimes considered to be a member of the OS/2 BMP family of formats. It is very similar to OS/2 Pointer format.There is a color format, and a (rare?) bi-level format. Multiple icons may be stored in the same file using the "bitmap array" ("BA") container format. The BA format may be used even when the file contains only one icon.
