GTK-UPDATE-ICON-C(1) [FIXME: manual] GTK-UPDATE-ICON-C(1)NAME
gtk-update-icon-cache - Icon theme caching utility
SYNOPSIS
gtk-update-icon-cache [--force] [--ignore-theme-index] [--index-only] [--source [name]] [--quiet] [--validate] {iconpath}
DESCRIPTION
gtk-update-icon-cache creates mmap()able cache files for icon themes.
It expects to be given the path to a icon theme directory containing an index.theme, e.g. /usr/share/icons/hicolor, and writes a
icon-theme.cache containing cached information about the icons in the directory tree below the given directory.
GTK+ can use the cache files created by gtk-update-icon-cache to avoid a lot of system call and disk seek overhead when the application
starts. Since the format of the cache files allows them to be mmap()ed shared between multiple applications, the overall memory consumption
is reduced as well.
OPTIONS --force, -f
Overwrite an existing cache file even if it appears to be uptodate.
--ignore-theme-index, -t
Don't check for the existence of 'index.theme' in the icon theme directory. Without this option, gtk-update-icon-cache refuses to
create an icon cache in a directory which does not appear to be the toplevel directory of an icon theme.
--index-only, -i
Don't include image data in the cache.
--source, -c
Output a C header file declaring a constant name with the contents of the icon cache.
--quiet, -q
Turn off verbose output.
--validate, -v
Validate existing icon cache.
BUGS
None known yet.

I was disappointed with new GNOME3.
It is not possible to create new shortcuts on Desktop or to
create new file or folder and icons remind me on smartphone launchers :wall:
For me that is not serious GUI for servers and not even for a Desktop. Hope for better future :D (8 Replies)
