GNOME Symbolic Icons

+Purpose of this icon theme is to extend the base icon theme that follows the Tango style guidelines for

+=====

+The whole set is maintained in a single SVG, src/gnome-stencils.svg. Each context (apps, actions,
mimetypes...) lives inside an Inkscape layer (group). Any group inside that layer is treated as an icon and

handled by using Inkscape's verbs, which means it will pop up Inkscape GUI at you and will take ages.
