Org files

I would like to request that there be an icon for Org files.

Other than visual nicety I'd find this particularly helpful as .org files can be exported to a wide range of formats, and result in a large number of files being produced. Not having a distinct icon makes it hard to identify the 'source' .org file in many cases (see attachment).

File type: Org-mode (.org)
Icon Name: text-org
Description: A plain text markup format that's been around for 17 years.
Designed in Emacs but there are extensions for many other editors.
Webpage: https://orgmode.org/
Original Icon: https://orgmode.org/img/org-mode-unicorn.png

On a system with Org registered as a file type, one finds the following (which may be useful)

$ gio info -a standard::icon ~/.org/todo.org
  standard::icon: text-org, text-x-generic, text-org-symbolic, text-x-generic-symbolic

$ xdg-mime query filetype ~/.org/todo.org
text/org

Example implementation: https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/papirus-icon-theme/blob/master/Papirus/64x64/mimetypes/text-org.svg

I made a suggestion for an icon (org mode icon suggestions) its just 64x64 would it work?

Looks like this https://i.imgur.com/TgEBDiC.png

Hi Jens! We don't do patches over Bugzilla anymore. Would you be interested in submitting these icons in a GitLab merge request over at https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/breeze-icons/-/merge_requests/?

Here's the documentation: https://community.kde.org/Infrastructure/GitLab

I can give you a hand if you run into any hiccups.

Thanks for your effort Jens - it's fantastic to see something actually come of this. Two minor criticisms if you don't mind:
 - The mane line looks overly jagged to me
 - The horn seems to thin and spindly

Thanks again for your work :)
