NAME

6       gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0 - Icon theme caching utility
7

SYNOPSIS

9       gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0 [--force] [--ignore-theme-index]
10                                 [--index-only] [--source [name]] [--quiet]
11                                 [--validate] {iconpath}

DESCRIPTION

14       gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0 creates mmap()able cache files for icon
15       themes.
16
17       It expects to be given the path to a icon theme directory containing an
18       index.theme, e.g.  /usr/share/icons/hicolor, and writes a
19       icon-theme.cache containing cached information about the icons in the
20       directory tree below the given directory.
21
22       GTK+ can use the cache files created by gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0 to
23       avoid a lot of system call and disk seek overhead when the application
24       starts. Since the format of the cache files allows them to be mmap()ed
25       shared between multiple applications, the overall memory consumption is
26       reduced as well.
27

OPTIONS

29       --force, -f
30           Overwrite an existing cache file even if it appears to be uptodate.
31
32       --ignore-theme-index, -t
33           Don´t check for the existence of ´index.theme´ in the icon theme
34           directory. Without this option, gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0 refuses
35           to create an icon cache in a directory which does not appear to be
36           the toplevel directory of an icon theme.
37
38       --index-only, -i
39           Don´t include image data in the cache.
40
41       --source, -c
42           Output a C header file declaring a constant name with the contents
43           of the icon cache.
44
45       --quiet, -q
46           Turn off verbose output.
47
48       --validate, -v
49           Validate existing icon cache.
