This is a modern version of elfres which uses GTK 3 and improves on features compared to original elfres/elficon which hasn't been maintained since 2011. See the INSTALL file for general installation instructions.
Note
This application is a technology demonstration, at this point please DO NOT consider this implementation to be a specification for how ELF icons will be supported by desktop environments. With that said, this application and the associated "libr" resource library provide a solid mechanism for managing application resources that you are free to use in your own applications.
See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ELFIconSpec for a detailed proposal.
