gentoo-xcursors
A high quality set of animated mouse cursors.
The original authors are unknown[1], the source of the initial
commit is the file gentoo-cursors-tad-0.3.1.tar.bz2 from the Gentoo
mirrors. If you have the source files used to generate the cursors, please get
in touch.
Previews
The conversion from X11 cursor to PNG I’ve used is a bit lossy. In reality the cursors look better than in the pictures.
Install
Gentoo
emerge -a x11-themes/gentoo-xcursorsOther
Copy the contents of cursors/ into /usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11/cursors/ or
~/.icons/.
Configuration
See Gentoo Wiki: Cursor themes. The available sizes are 16, 24, 32, 48 and 64.
License
gentoo-xcursors is licensed under the MIT license. See LICENSE for details.
To do
(Re-)create source files
Since we don’t have the sources, creating new cursors or modifying them is not gonna be easy. Possible solutions are to (semi-automatically?) create SVGs from the X11 cursors, start from scratch, or work directly with the X11 cursors. Ideas are welcome.
Prettier preview
The script used for preview generation does not yield the best results. If you know how to generate them without loosing quality, please let us know.
