Description Nate Graham 2018-11-22 02:56:38 UTC
Right now we use a document-style icon to represent executable applications, which seems inappropriate. This is probably okay for executable *scripts*, since they're also text files, but it seems wrong for executable *applications.* Here are the icons that suffer from this issue:

application-x-executable
application-x-java-applet
application-x-ms-dos
application-x-macbinary

Soon enough we're going to have an icon for AppImage apps too: https://phabricator.kde.org/D17086

Let's define a new style that says, "I'm an executable application!"

Some more:
- application-x-sharedlib
- application-ms-dos-executable

That patch closed the wrong bug. Re-opening.
