✨ geticonset(1) — bestie edition, General Commands Manual energy ✨

okay so welcome to the geticonset page, it lives in section 1 of the manual (that's the general commands girlies 💅) and honestly? she's simple, she's iconic, she does one thing and she does it well.

🌸 NAME 🌸

geticonset — grabs the current Window Maker icon set, no cap 👑

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

geticonset [options] [iconsetfile]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So here's the tea, bestie 🍓 — geticonset goes and reads the WMWindowAttributes domain, finds the icon set chillin' in there, and then writes it out. Where does it write it? Either straight to stdout (so it just vibes onto your screen) OR into the file you name, iconsetfile. That's it. That's the whole plot. It's giving "small but mighty" ✨

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• --help — prints a help message with the whole list of options, so you're never left guessing 🫶
• --version — prints the version of Window Maker that this program came from, so you know exactly which era of slay you're working with 🔥

🌈 ENVIRONMENT 🌈

• WMAKER_USER_ROOT — this one sets the initial path for the Defaults directory. The program literally appends "Defaults/" onto this variable to figure out where the databases actually live. If you never set it? No stress, it just defaults to "~/GNUstep" 💜

🦋 FILES 🦋

• WMAKER_USER_ROOT/Defaults/WMWindowAttributes — this is the actual file that gets read. the real one. the main character 👑

💫 SEE ALSO 💫

• seticons(1)
• wmaker(1)

(go give them a lil visit too, they're the friend group 🫶)
