Make new filetype use custom icon

Make new filetype use custom icon

I am creating a compiler for a new programming language i am writing, and
i am using a new file-type for my binary file format because it is an
interpreted language. I was wondering how i would be able to store an icon
in the file format, and then display that image on the desktop instead of
using the default image for my program. For example an executable files
icon look can be customized instead of all the executable files looking
identical on the desktop. I am using windows and c++.
