v0.5.0 is finally here!
------------------------------
Thanks to everyone that submitted feedback on issue #162 on GitHub, I really appreciate it. I will probably ask for more feedback in the future; this will enforce the community-oriented development approach that I am using. La Capitaine is really shaping up to be an awesome, complete icon pack, and it wouldn't have been doable without help from the community.
Roadmap from here on...
------------------------------------
There are, at the time of writing this, 74 open issues in the Github issue tracker. Most of these are icon requests, and I'd like to get them when I can, but it likely won't be for a while. I'm heading back to uni for the fall semester this week, and I want to focus on more of my programming projects. I still plan on actively maintaining this project though — there is a lot more design work I want to do :grin:
In the next few releases I want to address more icon requests and...
* Add complete folder-color support
* Add hardcode-tray support
Donations
========
I'm a poor computer science student in university, and I spend many hours per week working on software and artwork for the community --
I'm not gonna hound you for money, or charge you anything for this icon pack, but if you wanna support me (buy me a coffee?), please hit that fancy donate button :)
To those that have supported this project with code and/or money, my heart goes out to you <3

What is this?
==========
La Capitaine is an icon pack, designed to integrate with most desktop environments. The set of icons takes inspiration from the latest iterations of macOS and Google's Material Design through the use of visually pleasing gradients, shadowing, and simple icon geometry.
Every image in this theme is a scalable vector graphic so it will look great at any size, on any screen. In my spare time, I work on adding new icons, updating old ones, and making this theme more complete. Since this theme is updated often, you should clone this git repository and pull regularly to make sure you're always up-to-date:
```
cd ~/.icons
git clone https://github.com/keeferrourke/la-capitaine-icon-theme.git
```
Icon Requests
===========
If there's an icon that's missing in this project, feel free to contact me or open an issue on my Github :)
Configuration
===========
La Capitaine comes with a configuration script which attempts to determine your distribution and desktop environment. Using this information, La Capitaine updates several system icons and icons used for mime-types.
For best integration with your distro/desktop environment, please run `./configure` and follow the prompts.

Traditionally, capitaine is masculine only (for historical reasons, main one being the absence of female captains for the most part of the language's existence). But, as we know, it is now possible to find women at positions were they would be qualified as "capitaines". Therefore came the need to create a feminine form. In French, it is generally done by simply adding an 'e' at the end of the word (for example, "avocat" (lawyer) becomes "avocate" when speaking of a woman) with the usual exceptions you find in French (and the exceptions of the exceptions). As "capitaine" already ends with an 'e', the word don't change (that 'e' is silent anyway (but changes the pronunciation of the end of the word in some cases)). So "la capitaine" is totally correct if applied to a woman. You can find an example on wiktionary (french one) under the 4th definition: "La capitaine de l'équipe de volley féminin."
As such, it is not masculine or feminine but both and, out of context, "le capitaine" or "la capitaine" are both correct.
