You can also download a
gzip'ed tar file of this section as it stands
at this moment. Please do this sparingly.
Support Files
This directory to to provide support scripts, examples and configuration
file for the use of the Icon Library. This section is highly depentent
on contributions of the users of the library. Please contribute.
-
Scripts.
- Numerious shell and perl scripts I use in managing this icon
library. About half of the scripts assume that Jef Poskanzer's
PbmPlus (or NetPbm) Filter Package is in the users path. I make
no gurantee on these scripts, though I use them almost everyday.
-
Configuration Examples.
- Various configuration files (or segments of), to configure specific
application programs to use sections of the library. May of these
were donated to this section to help others tring the same thing.
-
Color Resource File Examples.
- Various Resources to force programs to use the standard color table.
Some applications available suffer from the ``Angry Fruit Salad''
Syndrome, and as such use just about any color that the developer
can get a hold of. Others just do not provide any usable color
settings (For example the ``Bitmap'' program in the X windows core).
These files are attempts to create color application default files
for these applications using the standard color table.
- ___oOo___ Background Icons ___oOo___
- "xbgnd_cmds_all"
- This is a file listing commands for all background images in this
library. The file is filtered with the `C Pre-Processor' to allow
it to be more compact and for easy modification of the X commands
used to set your displays background. Look at the comments at the
top of the file for more information on using it.
You may also like to download the
randomline perl script to randomly pick a image from this file.
Suggestions for alternative colors for bitmap backgrounds are most
welcome.
- "xbgnd_cmds_good"
- Like the above list but all the worst backgrounds in the library
have been commented out. Suggestions welcome.
- "xbgnd_cmds_mine"
- Another list but only listing the backgrounds I like. IE: what
I though were the best with variarty.
- ___oOo___ Misc Items ___oOo___
- "list_icons"
- The perl script used to create the index files for this collection
``on the fly''. This program will also create and send gzip'ed tar
files of this library as and when required, thus freeing me from
keeping such files pre-built and up-to-date.
- "images_mirror"
- A simple script to download and un-tar the
``
Pre-Converted WWW Images '' from this library. The shell script
uses the lynx program to grab the Gzipped Tar file of these images.
- Patch for XV 3.10a
- The XV 3.10a program has a bad X pixmap handling module.
You can fix this by subsituting this replacement
"xvxpm.c" module
I created from an older version of XV. For more information please
read the README
file.
