Themable icons

NOTE: this page might be outdated

This page lists the proposed icon names to be used by Inkscape when implementing Themable App Specific icons, described here.

We'll only use three contexts from the Icon Naming Specification: Actions, Places, and Status.

The ALS/INS column says whether the icon name is present in either the Art Libre set or the freedesktop.org Icon Naming Specification. Ideally, it should be all green, but Inkscape requires a lot of special icons that may not be of much use to other applications.
