It also makes a backup of your current xpm files. I am no Bash programmer, but it works.... so I would suggest someone who is knowledgeable about it look at my file and see if there is some better programming that can be done to make this nicer, and if any of the devs are around (after the holidays of course) I'd like to know if this can be adapted to be used in the menu updating script. You can tweak this to make different sizes... This is something that requires SUDO. Please make sure you are comfortable running potentially dangerous commands before testing this out. I have tested it on my computer, and it works for me. I'll attach the file, and put it into the e-mail so it is available to look at before you download it or run it. If anything about it needs to be explained I'd be glad to explain what I did, though if you are good a shell scripting, I am sure you can think of a better way of doing this. the things you can edit are <tt> </tt><tt>size=24x24</tt><tt> </tt>make this whatever size you like... I find 24x24 is good for the menu... I have 2 backup directories.... if you try it once backup is created. if backup exists extraBackup is created. If you keep trying it you will get an error that extraBackup already exists. <tt>backup=/usr/share/pixmaps/backup/</tt><tt> </tt><tt>extraBackup=/usr/share/pixmaps/extraBackup/</tt><tt> </tt> You will not be prompted for anything except your password at the beginning. Here it is: <tt> </tt><tt>#!/bin/bash</tt><tt> </tt><tt>shopt -s nullglob</tt><tt> </tt><tt>iconDir=/usr/share/pixmaps/</tt><tt> </tt><tt>backup=/usr/share/pixmaps/backup/</tt><tt> </tt><tt>extraBackup=/usr/share/pixmaps/extraBackup/</tt><tt> </tt><tt>cd "$iconDir"</tt><tt> </tt><tt>putfiles=(*.xpm)</tt><tt> </tt><tt>size=24x24</tt><tt> </tt><tt>echo "This will require a password to backup and convert your icons"</tt><tt> </tt><tt>if [ ! -d "$backup" ]; then</tt><tt> </tt><tt>echo "Making a backup of $iconDir"</tt><tt> </tt><tt>sudo mkdir ${backup}</tt><tt> </tt><tt>for file in "${putfiles[@]}"; do</tt><tt> </tt><tt> sudo cp ${file} ${backup}</tt><tt> </tt><tt> echo "$file has been saved to $backup"</tt><tt> </tt><tt>done</tt><tt> </tt><tt>fi</tt><tt> </tt><tt>if [ -d "$backup" ]; then</tt><tt> </tt><tt>echo "You have already backed up your files once...
