I'm playing around with "sampling" desktop icons. basically, you choose an icon theme, try it out, if you don't like it, restore your original theme. Much like the icon_switcher but having script remember the original theme.
I thought iI knew how to read the contents of a file but apparently i'm not doing something right. So I went back through all the information I could find on it. Now i'm more confused that ever
I'm certain this is a simple one-line process that i'm just not grasping. I've tried some things such as:
Code: Select all
NewTheme = [cat /etc/desktop_icon_theme]
NewTheme = " ' cat /etc/desktop_icon_theme' "
NewTheme = $('cat /etc/desktop_icon_theme')
Thanks!
