How to generate list
redxtech opened this issue · comments
Hey, I'm wondering if you would be able to share how you generated the list of icons, I was hoping I could do the same, making sure it has all icons and is up-to-date and everything.
Hi, it has been a while since I've done this but from my memory I copied the source code from the official cheat sheet and used the sed command on my Linux system to trim all the unwanted text leaving me with just the class name and hex code of the icons. If I remember correctly to display icons using the hex code you need to just escape it with a backslash like so \e711.
Yeah, that sounds pretty much like what I ended up doing. I downloaded the source for the cheat sheet page, and then running a script on it. The script is just chained tr, sed, awk, grep, and xargs commands.

I'm glad you managed to generate the list. Thanks for linking your script it can come in handy later on.
