The SetMenuItemIconHandle function sets the icon of a menu item with an icon
handle instead of a resource ID. SetMenuItemIconHandle allows you to set
icons of type 'ICON', 'cicn', 'SICN', as well as icon suites. To set
resource-based icons for a menu item, call SetItemIcon.

Subject: [FB] Menu icons in OS X


Menu icons don't seem to be very popular nowadays but sometimes a 
picture paints a thousand words [who said that? was it the follicly 
challenged lollipop?]. For example, I always get confused between 
Centre Vertically and Centre Horizontally but a little picture makes 
everything clear (to me).

Anyway, I've added a couple of small icons (SICNs) to my menu items but 
they're in b&w and don't really look very carbonlike. What's the OS X 
equivalent and how can we use them in FB^3.7?
