feature: enable .Xresources control of Xcursor theme for instantwm and st #118

Open ppenguin opened 2 years ago

ppenguin commented 2 years ago

To configure better HiDPI ergonomy, I have a custom cursor theme, which is both set via lxappearance and in ~/.Xresources and affects the size and icons via Xcursor.theme and Xcursor.size.

This seems to work pretty much everywhere, except:

over the root window
over the menu bar
over the terminal (st+tmux)

Objective: enable seamless integration of the chosen Xcursor theme also for these.

Interestingly after I recently executed lxappearance with my chosen cursor theme, t was shown correctly over the root window and the status/menu bar. (And I expect it should work the same when e.g. forcing GTK styles with home-manager)

This means that after integrating https://github.com/instantOS/st-instantos/pull/4 this issue can be closed.
