Hi Larry,

To have both "small" (18-pixel high) and "large" (32-pixel high) bitmaps on
the toolbar, you have to make two separate bitmap files. The small one would
be, say, 'prev_map.bmp'. The large version would be 'prev_ma2.bmp'.

The general pattern is that the large bitmap has the same name as the small one,
except that the last character is changed to a 2. You can see a possible problem:
what does one do with a toolbar button named "action52.bmp"? The answer is to name
the large button "action5z.bmp": the last character is changed from a 2 to a z.

Incidentally, the bitmaps really should be 18 or 32 pixels high, to match the
existing bitmaps. This isn't sacred, but it's a good idea. The width is not so
tightly constrained. If you want to make your toolbar bitmaps wider or narrower,
go ahead.

...And I should now cut-and-paste the above and add it to the end of 'toolbar.dat',
which is the only place where most of these odd details are documented.
