  • What do I do with an Xcursor file?
    1 project | /r/linuxquestions | 19 Apr 2023
    I am learning how to do some theming and I have run into an issue with trying to convert a custom cursor used previously on windows from .ani to a format usable on linux. using win2xcur i was able to turn the .ani into an xcursor file but I am stuck at the next step of making gnome-tweaks or terminal recognize the file. I know it needs to go in usr/share/icons, but since it's not a .theme file, it's not viable as a selection i guess. How can i turn an xcursor file into a .theme file? is there another script for this? or am i missing something else in the process?
