This directory contains the source files used to generate icon themes.
Within each directory (eg. luna
) these are the contents:
res/
- contains the PNG images for each icon, divided into subfolders based on the icon size
index.theme
- the actual freedesktop theme config file (that gets deployed to /usr/share/icons
)
mappings
- since there are lots of Freedesktop icon names that map to the same icon, the mappings file maps those Freedesktop icon names to the icons found under /res
(formatted as (freedesktop icon name)-->(icon filename minus extension)
)
All that you need to do to add icons (or change icons is):
- Place your icons in the appropriate directory under
/res
- Update the
mappings
file as per the format mentioned above
