An Arch Cursor (4 sizes)

Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net

Description:

This is a mod of ArchCursorBlue, originally created by bavardage here:( http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/ArchCursorBlue?content=78506 )

..............................
This new version (1.5) has:
..............................
A new Move, Crossed_Circle, and Hand.
Sizes: 32px, 26px, 22px, 16px

.................................
You can expect in Version 2:
.................................
(Maybe) Another new Hand. I don't think I like this
one any more than the old one...

And the missing cursor pieces such as Text cursor, etc.

++---- Installation ----++
...is the same an most X11 themes...

In Terminal...
1. tar zxvf 132890-AnArchCursor-v1.5-[by.daevski]
2. cd ./132890-AnArchCursor-v1.5-[by.daevski]/
3. sudo cp -R ./AnArchCursor-* /usr/share/icons/
4. Edit ~/.Xdefaults ... add this line:
Xcursor.theme: AnArchCursor-26
If you want to use the 26px version.

The next time X starts an app, it should be seen... or you will see the change after reboot.

./ daevski .

Is this on AUR? I can't find it!
If it isn't, it should be!

By the way, I cannot install it via the KDE installer: it is not a valid theme archive file. And I have no Xdefaults file.

I'm glad you like it.

I would place it in the AUR, but that means I have to write the script to do that.

.... Maybe next week :)

In the mean time, you can install with the general install instructions I left above. And you if you have trouble, send me message on here.

w00t. I won an iPad today just for being alive.

Wow, lucky man! (I would sell it and buy a spare notebook to experiment with Linux ;))
Should I create an .Xdefaults file? I do not have one. Sorry, but I always installed themes with the default KDE theme installer.

I'm not sure. I don't run a Desktop Enviroment like Gnome/KDE. If you can't get it installed with the kde installer, ask within your distro's chat channel on irc. Or send me a message on here instead of comments.
