I think all "res/commandimagelist" strings in the code can be replaced
with "cmd" then. I've looked at the occurrences (not all in
helpcontent2).

Ah, I see now, it's used in packimages script and with that re-build

to change the path but build fails.
I've moved the file into res/ and adapted the path to make libreoffice.

That's true. But commandimage.ilst is created from all images in
default_images/cmd.
Probably they are mostly used.
