Correct. The issue is that the spec says: The dash "-" character is used to separate levels of specificity in icon names, for all contexts other than MimeTypes. Does that mean that that is the *only* use of the dash. I think that it should be, and that is the way that I read it -- if there is a dash in a non-MimeType name, then it indicates a separation of levels of specificity. -- JRT _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
