Lotus SmartIcons
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
(Redirected from Lotus Smart Icon)
Lotus SmartIcons (.smi) is an icon-related format associated with some Lotus products, including SmartSuite and Word Pro.
Discussion
An SMI file defines an icon "set", or toolbar. It does not contain the icon graphics.
It contains a set of icon definitions, each of which may be a reference to a built-in icon, or a custom icon definition. A custom icon definition could include the name of a BMP file containing the graphics, and the name of an .LWP script file defining the icon's behavior.
Identification
Files begin with ASCII "IC". (This isn't very distinctive. A number of other formats begin this way.)
In at least some files, the next three bytes are 0x34 0x03 0x00. At offset 5 is an ASCII name.
