    Revision as of 17:34, 10 November 2007 by Jpetso (talk | contribs) (printer-{error,printing} may not be the totally best fitting icons, but they fit well enough to be listed.)

    Not yet ready for consumption, this is only the raw list of icons in the spec, without checking on what Oxygen already has.

    Specification compliance of icon names

    Icon names without trailing stars already exist in the freedesktop.org icon naming specification.

     * suggesting this for inclusion into the icon naming specification
     ** not in the spec, but let's keep it out of there anyways,
        it's not really suited to be a standard icon
