Create aliases to icons via a Perl script
Wow. 227 lines of code? Perl code at that? Perl the most cryptic and spartanic of all scripting languages? You can make an entire OS in 227 lines of Perl. But the task at hand could be done a lot better with ordinary shell scripting I think. Or you could just use a utility like this.
http://rixstep.com/xscan Coupled with this. http://rixstep.com/xshelf It's finished before you know it. My Leopard box has three Xcode SDKs so it's got a lot of files and directories. It took less than three minutes to find over 1,800 ICNS files and transfer them to a shelf. And if I save the shelf file I get a single file added to the system. Everything - the 1,800+ "aliases" - are all in one file. You're making too much of a project out of this. It's commendable but it's simply too much work!
Too much code?
