icons, icons, icons

So I've been working on awn-icons recently. The goal to provide a standardized way to change the icons used by applets (and eventually tasks/launchers).

I'm feeling lazy so I'l just point to a couple pages.

  1. Sharkbaitbobby has made a nice little write up that is of most use to python devs but is definitely worth reading for others.
  2. There's also a blueprint.
Todo:
  • Clearing of configured icons.
  • Look into using this with the awn core taskmanager/launcher.
  • Convert more applets.
  • Hook up some signals so changes in icons get reflected in all awn-icons users immediately.
