Hey,
i always press nautilus when i actually want to press kate or gedit
(asuming they are opened in the taskbar).. simply because they all have
almost the same look.
Nautilus comes with a good looking clean icon and even a .svg image so
why not use that one for the Echo icon theme?
Let me quote from the GNOME HiG to explain why the default Nautilus icon
is bad and is wise to replace it:
