NAME
xcursorgen - create an X cursor file from a collection of PNG images
SYNOPSIS
xcursorgen [ -V ] [ --version ] [ -? ] [ --help ] [ -p dir ] [ --prefix
dir ] [ config-file [ output-file ] ]
DESCRIPTION
Xcursorgen reads the config-file to find the list of cursor images
along with their hotspot and nominal size information. Xcursorgen con-
verts all of the images to Xcursor format and writes them to the out-
put-file.
Each line in the config file is of the form:
<size> <xhot> <yhot> <filename> <ms-delay>
Multiple images with the same <size> are used to create animated cur-
sors, the <ms-delay> value on each line indicates how long each image
should be displayed before switching to the next. <ms-delay> can be
elided for static cursors.
If config-file is not specified, or is specified as "-", standard input
is used for the configuration file. If output-file is not specified,
or is specified as "-", standard output is used for the output file.
