Capitaine Cursors r2 is Released For Ubuntu, inspired by macOS and based on KDE Breeze

This is an x-cursor theme inspired by macOS and based on KDE Breeze. The source files were made in Inkscape, and the theme was designed to pair well with my icon pack, La Capitaine.

Everything you need to build the xcursor theme is found in src/, and the prebuilt theme is found in bin/xcursor/

There is also a Windows cursor theme available in bin/windows/, though it is not buildable from source due to the broken nature of Microsoft's operating system. It also will not receive substantial updates.

Download

Changelog version r2:

* added Windows cursor theme to archive, by popular request
* added prebuilt themes in bin/ so you don't have to build the theme yourself
* source files are now in src/
* fixed bugs in the build script for the xcursor theme

Installation

*NIXes, *BSDs, and possibly others

To install the cursor theme simply copy the compiled theme to your icons directory. For local user installation:

cp -pr bin/xcursors ~/.icons/capitaine-cursors

For system-wide installation for all users:

Then set the theme with your preferred desktop tools.
