Updated: This tutorial has been updated and enhanced, so be sure to check it out again!
Here is another great tutorial for everyone’s favourite open source vector graphics editor. (that would be inkscape…)
Today’s tutorial outlines a basic workflow for creating, tweaking and exporting icons with inkscape. If you need some more icon tutorials check out the icon category

I thought you´d teach how to build an icon from scratch instead of showing how its done to export a ready one… but its also nice to have this feature native in the new Inkscape version! ^^

i think the author’s purpose for that tutorial was to show the basic workflow in inkscape for icon creation.
There are a few tutorials already listed on this blog that show different ways of actually drawing the icons:

I could not find any e-Mail address of the author, so I post it here, The way to do it without awk is like this:
$ svg=/home/nugget/xxx.whatever.svg
$ file=”$(basename “$svg”)”
$ echo “$file”
$ name=”${file%.*}”
$ echo “$name”
