Folder Appearance - XDG - In 3rd Party File Managers?
Hi Slackers,
Ever since using Slack, I've always used small WM like Blackbox and Openbox and 3rd party file managers, like SpaceFM...
I've always been under the assumption that with iconsets, having a file manager show the folders in the HOME directoy, that various developers make with pictures on the folders for the downloads, documents, music, etc., these became displayed through the proper setup of XDG, but I'm not sure.
So, with Slackware 15.0 and all the great changes, I'm only running once again Openbox and SpaceFM. I am playing around with the Aw0ken iconset at the moment, and when it loads all the folders in the HOME, they are all just plain folders, with no pictures on them, used for the different categories.
Because, after I compiled and installed Openbox, when I first started it, it created in my HOME `/.config/user-dirs.dirs with these entries and it created these folders too, so I assumed these icons would of displayed.
XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/Desktop"
XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/Downloads"
XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR="$HOME/Documents"
XDG_VIDEOS_DIR="$HOME/Videos"
XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR="$HOME/Templates"
XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR="$HOME/Public"
XDG_MUSIC_DIR="$HOME/Music"
XDG_PICTURES_DIR="$HOME/Pictures"
I've taken a screen shot of these folders you can see what I mean.
Notice all the pictures on the folders, which are displayed on the folders of these names, how can I get Slackware to display these various icons, only running Openbox and SpaceFM?
I place my icons in; /home/user/.icons and I load the icons with LXAppearance.
