icon-slicer
utility for generating icon themes and libXcursor cursor themes
The inputs to icon-slicer are conceptually: - A set of multi-layer images, one for each size - Am XML theme description file Each image contains all the cursors arranged in a grid; For cursors the layers are: - A layer with a dot for the hotspot of each cursor - The main image or first animation frame for multi-frame animated cursors - The second animation frame for multi-frame animated cursors - ... For icons, the layers are: - A layer with the images - An optional layer with attachment points for emblems - An optional layer with boxes for embedding text into icons In practice, since loading of multilayer images is not supported by standard image libraries, each layer is input as a separate image file. The theme description file contains, among other things, information about the source images to read, the location of each named cursor or icon within the grid, and a set of aliases from names to other names.
