By default, this script will copy a link (kind of an alias) to each and every icon in the system into a folder on the desktop in a nice hierarchy.
Each icon belonging to an Application will be linked from a folder:
Desktop » OSX-Icons » Applications » application_name » icon_name
Each icon not belonging to an application wil be linked from a folder:
Desktop » OSX-Icons » letter » iconname
where letter is the first character of the icon's name. But you can do more with it! Instead of just starting findOSXicons from the Terminal, you can also tell it to:
- search for other file extensions
- store the results elsewhere
- don't search the whole system
[robg adds: I tested this, and it works ... but it can take a *long* time to run if you've got a ton of files on your machine. If you'd rather not copy, paste, and make executable, I've put a zipped ready-to-use version on the macosxhints server.]
