Set the cursor theme:
After choosing a red cursor theme, you can set it using your desktop environment's settings
or a dedicated tool. The specific steps may vary depending on your desktop environment,
but you can usually find the cursor theme settings
in the "Appearance" or "Personalization" section.
Download the cursor theme:
Find a red cursor theme you like and download it.
You can find cursor themes on websites like https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/IDBObjectStore/
openCursor or https://www.gnome-look.org/browse?cat=107&ord=latest.
Extract the cursor theme:
Once the cursor theme is downloaded,
extract it to the appropriate directory.
The location of this directory may vary depending on your distribution,
but it is typically something like ~/.icons or /usr/share/icons.
Set the cursor theme:
Follow the instructions in Method 1 to set the cursor theme.
The red cursor theme you downloaded should now be available as an option.

2. Extract the Icon Theme:
Once the icon theme package is downloaded, extract it to the appropriate directory.
The usual location for icon themes is ~/.icons for user-specific themes and
/usr/share/icons for system-wide themes.

If you're using Arch Linux,
you might need to install the hicolor-icon-theme package to ensure compatibility
with various applications. Use the following command:
sudo pacman -S hicolor-icon-theme
3. Set the Icon Theme:
The method for setting the icon theme depends on your desktop environment. Here's a general approach:
GNOME:
Go to "Settings" and navigate to the "Appearance" section.
Under "Icons," select the desired icon theme from the dropdown menu.
KDE Plasma:
Open "System Settings" and go to "Appearance."
Under "Global Theme," switch to the "Icons" tab.
Choose the icon theme you want from the list.
XFCE:
Right-click on the desktop and select "Preferences."
Choose "Appearance" and then "Icons."
Select the icon theme you downloaded from the list.
4. Verify the Icon Theme:

You should now see the new icons applied throughout your system.
