I develop a small public script that is meant to be very compact and
portable. All of its functionality fits nicely in one php file. But at
the moment it requires a bunch of tiny icons. I would like to
eliminate
this and just have a single file. But without ruining the graphical
interface.

So far the best solution i just came up with is to have two files -
one
would be an image with all the icons and i could use css to display
the
right icon.

Write a PHP script that takes each icon and appends it as PHP code
such as:

<?php
//my little library here
?>
<?php define('ICON1', 'GIF89a47BA73266C887EDFE...');?>

You can then have functions that spit out ICON1 or whatever as needed.

It will be kind of like writing your own Makefile for PHP source, only
not...
