WarCraft III cursors (Undead main) theme

1 Description

This is WarCraft themed cursors.

Misc additions/deletions/modifications included. Like hot spot fixes, animation duration changes, renaming, relinking, recoloring (fel_orc_hand), rotation of existing image and so creating new cursor, shrinkages.

1.1 Code description

A small program for getting bitmaps and hashes of core X11 cursors and additional mozilla's bitmaps.

2 Installation

Inside ~/.local/share/cursors/default/index.theme (create if necessary) write:

[Icon Theme]
Inherits = WarCraftIII

Unpack cursors into ~/.local/share/cursors/. So structure should be like: ~/.local/share/cursors/WarCraftIII/cursors/left_ptr

Note, that XCURSOR_PATH should include something like: ${XDG_DATA_HOME}/cursors in environment settings of yours. E. g. XCURSOR_PATH=${HOME}/.local/share/cursors... in output of printenv.

That should be enough.

3 Compilation of code

Compile it via gcc -o cursors_dump -lX11 -lXcursor main.c

Add -DDUMP_MOZ_CURSORS for dumping moz cursors bitmaps from nsGtkCursors.h file.
Add -DDUMP_X11_CURSORS for dumping X11 core cursors bitmaps from cursor.bdf file.
