Create aliases to icons via a Perl script
Authored by: pietro on Jun 24, '08 08:29:54AM

I get a syntax error "findOSXicons.pl:227: Global symbol "$_n" requires explicit package name". Shouldn't this be "$_\n" and not "$_n" ?

Ever have one of those mornings? The zip file is now linked (and the backslashes are fixed).

you don't need sudo

just ignore the warnings of directories you may not view.
