###Using the Source
### Using the Source

There are scripts to simplify the rendering process; to run them (and edit icons) you will need:

* inkscape
* python

To render the cursor theme from the [source plate](src/cursors/elementary.svg) you will need to run the render script in [src/cursors](src/cursors):
cd src/cursors

cd src/cursors
python renderpngs.py

Then make the theme by running the make script in the [src/cursors/pngs](src/cursors/pngs) folder:

cd src/cursors/pngs
cd src/cursors/pngs
bash make.sh
