The launcher pointed at `Icon=story-editor`, a name that only the Breeze
theme happened to ship, and only at 16 and 22 px -- so anywhere the
desktop wanted a larger icon it fell back to something generic.
assets/md-manuscript.svg is the source: a sheaf of manuscript pages, an
amber chapter-title line over three of prose. Drawn in plain rounded
rectangles because a finer design silts up into a grey smear at 16 px.
It is rasterised to the eight sizes a desktop asks for, and the 256px
PNG is compiled into the binary as the window icon, so the title bar and
the task switcher carry it whether or not anything is installed. That
costs no new dependency: eframe already pulls `image` with png decoding.
A test decodes the bundled PNG, since a rename would otherwise show up
only as a blank icon at runtime.
Installation is now `./assets/install.sh` -- binary, icons, launcher and
both cache refreshes, safe to re-run after a rebuild. The launcher is a
file in the repository rather than a here-document in the instructions:
pasting one into a terminal leaves the shell sat at a `>` prompt waiting
for a terminator that never arrives, which is exactly what happened, and
this way the launcher is versioned along with everything else.

Add an XFCE section to the install guide covering Whisker Menu
favourites (right-click → Add to Favorites), panel/desktop launcher
alternatives, and menu-refresh commands. Fold XFCE equivalents into the
on-screen keyboard, HiDPI, and X11 tips, and add a troubleshooting row.

A 📂 button beside each path field opens a native picker: a folder
chooser for the workspace and an .odt save dialog for the export (which
appends the extension if omitted). Uses rfd with the XDG Desktop Portal
backend, so there is no GTK build dependency and no new shared library
at runtime.
