[issue25444] Py Launch Icon

[Nils Lindemann]

Nils Lindemann added the comment:

The icons are not intended to be used instead of the three default icons, please dont, these are just great.

I am just targeting the current launcher symbol:

* It contains a symbol of an instrument which can be used to kill people.
* in the 16x16 icon it is not clear at all what this is. it just looks like a smudge on the icon. When i first saw it i touched it to see if the smudge is on my screen.
* the symbol indicates that one is running the launcher. But thats not true, he is running the process that was launched by the launcher. So if this symbol is used for the exe which is the launcher, ok, but using it for all processes started with it is wrong in my opinion.

The icons for idle are just suggestions, using an alternative icon for idele, as i said, may be helpful to separate idle from command lines.

The alternative icons for the launcher are just thought as source of inspiration. Actually i think launched processes (except maybe idle) should use the standard py exe icon!
