NAME
    Apache::Icon - Lookup icon images

SYNOPSIS
        use Apache::Icon ();
        my $icon = Apache::Icon->new($subr);
        my $img = $icon->find || $icon->default;
        my $alt = $icon->alt;

DESCRIPTION
    This module rips out the icon guts of mod_autoindex and provides
    a Perl interface for looking up icon images. The motivation is
    to piggy-back the existing *AddIcon* and related directives for
    mapping file extensions and names to icons, while keeping things
    as small and fast as mod_autoindex does.

METHODS
    new Create a new *Apache::Icon* object with the given
        *Apache::SubRequest* object. Example:

            for my $entry (sort $dh->read) {
                next if $entry eq '.';
                my $subr = $r->lookup_file($entry);
                my $icon = Apache::Icon->new($subr);
                ...

    find
        Lookup icon image associated with the subrequest.

            my $img = $icon->find;

    default
        Lookup the default icon images.

            my $img = $icon->default; #DefaultIcon (unknown.gif)
            my $img = $icon->default("^^DIRECTORY^^"); #folder.gif
            my $img = $icon->default("^^BLANKICON^^"); #blank.gif

    alt Lookup the text alternative specified by the AddAlt directive.

            my $alt = $icon->alt || $img;

DIRECTIVES
    Refer to the *mod_autoindex* documentation for directives listed
    here with no description.

    IconDouble
        This directive can be set to *On* or *Off*. The default is
        *On* if *mod_autoindex* is configured with the server, *Off*
        otherwise. When the directive is *On*, *mod_icon* directive
        handlers will return DECLINE_CMD after processing which
        allows *mod_autoindex* to also handle the various *Icon* and
        *Alt* directives.

    AddIcon
    AddIconByType
    AddIconByEncoding
