awebfactory - web application factory pattern

To make a favicon in Debian linux or Ubuntu (in my case):

• Install the package xpm2wico with Synaptic or apt-get.
  An Xpm to Windows .ico converter
• Using Gimp, Capture and shrink or create/edit a 16x16 graphic.
• Save your image in X PixMap Image (xpm) format.
• Convert from xpm to favicon name and format: "xpm2wico favicon.xpm favicon.ico".
• Copy favicon.ico to convenient place, then add the following to a webpage:
  

  <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
