Changing the alternative icon

• Firefox
• Alternative icon
• File manager icon

Firefox

1. Go to /usr/share/applications/;
2. Go to the .desktop file of Firefox app;
3. Open the file with your favourite text editor;
4. Find Icon= and replace it with one of three alternatives: Icon=firefox or Icon=firefox-mozilla or Icon=firefox-traditional. Save it.

Alternative icon

1. Open the terminal and run cd ~/Suru++/apps/scalable/;

2. To download and save inside this folder, run the script:

   wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gusbemacbe/suru-plus/master/tools/alternative-icon.sh
   

3. Make it executable and trusted:

   chmod a+x alternative-icon.sh
   

4. Run the script:

   ./alternative-icon.sh
   

   You will be asked, for example:

   ~/alt-icon.sh
   => Old symlink
   user.svg
   => New symlink
   user-alt1.svg

   If you do not like one alternate and want to try another, run like:

   => Old symlink
   user-alt1.svg
   => New symlink
   user-alt2.svg

File manager icon

1. Go to the folder /usr/share/applications, for example, if you want to change the default icon of Nautilus, your favourite file manager, find nautilus.desktop;
2. Run as sudo and change Icon= to any of these:

• Icon=file-manager
• Icon=caja
• Icon=nautilus
• Icon=nemo
• Icon=spacefm-find
• Icon=thunar

Remember that if you install a new update of your system, these desktop files will revert to the original icon name. Move them to ~./local/share/applications. Note that after the upgrade of your system, it will add automatically the desktop files in the /usr/share/applications, so you need to remove them again.
