Summary: Consistent jEdit icon set from Tango Project

Initial Comment:
Hi,
I've been working on giving jedit a consistent l&f. Since users have freedom over \
component l&f through swing the only thing jedit needs is to adhere to styling \
guidelines and have a consistent icon set.

jEdit already has an ad-hoc icon set, but alas, not very consistent in dimensions or \
in naming, making it difficult to skin jedit without making changes to the code.

I propose an implementation of the Tango Icon Library as specified on: \
http://tango.freedesktop.org/Tango_Icon_Library

I will of course supply the necessary patches and have already implemented most of \
the icons. I've taking a few screenshots of my local working copy so you can have a \
taste: http://www.begynd.com/tangofied_jedit/

The current status is that i've gotten very far with the patch. I'm still making \
small modifications to the code, to factor out hardcoded icon names into the \
jedit_gui.prop file, for greater flexibility.

I'm online on IRC as "scarlac". If you have any suggestions or comments, please \
contact me. I'll continue to work on the patch if people want it, but if people \
dislike it, then I'll just stop.

Regards,
Seph M. Soliman

I like the icons. I'm curious to see the patch.

Some of the changes in the patch moves hardcoded filenames to settings in
jedit_gui.prop so icons can be changed easily. A sensible and simple
directory structure for icons are also in the patch. I did however consider
using the L&F plugin, but dismissed it since it impairs GUI performance.

One of the main goals for this patch is to give jEdit a complete and
professional look out-of-the-box by choosing a clean icon set. Some plugins
such as the ProjectViewer plugin use icons from the current icon set.
Plugins doing so will be "beautified" without need for refactoring.

Maybe, but in the other hand, the actual jEdit look & feel is old and
could also be replaced by a new one to look more modern

I like the icons.  Would it make sense to add your icon set to the look
and feel plugin, and let the user choose their preferred icon set from
there?
