    XIcons description

    XIcons is a simple program which will display icons upon your desktop.

    XIcons is an application which will display icons upon your desktop. The icons will launch programs when they are double clicked upon, and can be dragged around freely.

    The icons are displayed via ImLib so they are transparent and don't interfere with your desktop.

    The code was based upon a project I found on freshmeat called idesk - which was originally started because that software had a few major bugs, but it was a good tool.

    I'm no longer maintaining this software, or even using it. It's been left here in case there is any interest.

    Requirements:

    · requires an installed version of the imlib image libraries to work and a working C++ compiler with STL support.

    INSTALLATION

    Installation should require no more than the following:-

    ./configure
    make
    make install

    This will install the software in /usr/local/bin.
