The terminal icon is the one used so far. The patch mentioned changes it
to the octave logo in order to associate it clearly with octave.

Concerning the new icons I thought of the octave logo with some kind of
mini logo in the lower right corner. Are there some copyrights on the
original logo or is it allowed to post an altered icons as suggestion?
