This allows Windows cursor themes to be used on\nLinux, for example.\n\n`win2xcur` is more than a simple image conversion tool. It preserves the cursor\nhotspot and animation delay, and has an optional mode to add shadows that\nreplicates Windows's cursor shadow effect.\n\n`x2wincur` is a tool that does the opposite: it converts cursors in the Xcursor\nformat to Windows format (`*.cur`, `*.ani`), allowing to use your favourite\nLinux cursor themes on Windows.\n\n## Installation\n\nTo install the latest stable version:\n\n    pip install win2xcur\n\nTo install from GitHub:\n\n    pip install -e git+https://github.com/quantum5/win2xcur.git\n\n## Usage: `win2xcur`\n\nFor example, if you want to convert [the sample cursor](sample/crosshair.cur)\nto Linux format:\n\n    mkdir output/\n    win2xcur sample/crosshair.cur -o output/\n\n`-s` can be specified to enable shadows.\nMultiple cursors files can be specified on the command line.\nFor example, to convert a directory of cursors with shadows enabled:\n\n    win2xcur input/*.{ani,cur} -o output/ \n\nFor more information, run `win2xcur --help`.\n\n## Usage: `x2wincur`\n\nFor example, if you want to convert DMZ-White to Windows:\n\n    mkdir dmz-white/\n    x2wincur /usr/share/icons/DMZ-White/cursors/* -o dmz-white/\n\n## Troubleshooting\n\n`win2xcur` and `x2wincur` should work out of the box on most systems. If you\nare using unconventional distros (e.g. Alpine) and are getting errors related\nto `wand`, please see the [Wand documentation on installation][wand-install].\n\n  [wand-install]: https://docs.wand-py.org/en/0.6.7/guide/install.html\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fquantum5%2Fwin2xcur","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fquantum5%2Fwin2xcur","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fquantum5%2Fwin2xcur/lists"}
