NeXT-style "retro" theme for WindowMaker
|
||||
|
||||
This is the them I'm using at work. It is a mixture of styles I ran across, and it
|
||||
does not try to be "modern" in any way (I like the old look), however I do like some
|
||||
eye candy, thus I added a nice background image. The background was taken from the
|
||||
wonderful "Fenris" theme found at [1].
|
||||
|
||||
I distribute the theme under the GNU general public license [2].

Please do not use gifs or other large file formats as your background images.
|
||||
Although Window Maker does now include .gif support,
|
||||
most backgrounds (unless they are small tiles) are at least 640x480.
|
||||
and this makes for a <b>huge</b> gif file, generally in the 1meg+ range.<br>
|
||||
The same file as a .jpg could be as much as 95% smaller or more!<br>
|
||||
(also see <a href="http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/gif.html">here</a> for another good
|
||||
reason not to use GIFs),
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
Also when using an image as the Background, if you choose to remove the file
|
||||
extension, please include the file format of it in the .lsm for your theme.

title: Theme HOWTO - Tar'ing your theme
|
||||
---
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
<br />
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Here's a quick guide to tar'ing your theme up:<br>
|
||||
cd to your <tt>~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/</tt> directory, and type something like
|
||||
the following: (replacing the file names appropriately for your theme)
|
||||
</font>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li> <tt>tar -cvf Foo.tar Foo.lsm Backgrounds/FooBG.jpg Pixmaps/FooTile.xpm
|
||||
Icons/FooIcon.xpm Themes/Foo</tt>
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
<li> <tt>gzip -9 Foo.tar</tt>
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
|
||||
This should leave you with a nice new <tt>Foo.tar.gz</tt> theme which includes (in this case),
|
||||
the theme file (<tt>Themes/Foo</tt>), the background wallpaper (<tt>Backgrounds/FooBG.jpg</tt>),
|
||||
a tile (<tt>Pixmaps/FooTile.xpm</tt>), an icon for the dock (<tt>Icons/FooIcon.xpm</tt>)
|
||||
and a readme file (<tt>Foo.lsm</tt>).<br>
|
||||
LSM files for your themes are a must. The format of the LSM file is
|
||||
easy. Click <a href="example-lsm.txt">here</a> for an example.
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
If you're having trouble, try typing '<tt>man tar</tt>' or ask for help on irc
|
||||
in the #WindowMaker channel on EFnet. If all else fails, you can
|
||||
<a href="{{ site.baseurl }}/lists/wmaker-dev.html">contact us</a> and we'll try and help you out,
|
||||
but please try the other methods first. Thanks.
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Also, your theme file should NOT include your <tt>~/GNUstep/Defaults/WindowMaker</tt>
|
||||
file! This will overwrite the person who downloads the theme's keybindings
|
||||
and other personalized settings.
|
||||
Also do NOT include any files other those from the directories I mentioned
|
||||
above. For example, do NOT include your <tt>menu</tt> file or anything from your
|
||||
<tt>~/GNUstep/Defaults/</tt> directory. ONLY include files from the directories
|
||||
listed above and the readme.lsm file.

<h1>ThemePacks HOWTO</h1>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Themes (Theme Packs) For Window Maker</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<b>Note:</b> the information contained in this file is only valid for themes
|
||||
in the <tt>.themed</tt> (for theme directory) format, supported in
|
||||
Window Maker 0.50.0 or newer. See <a href="theme-HOWTO.html">here</a> for
|
||||
information on themes for WindowMaker-0.20.3 and earlier.
|
||||
<br><br><br>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>How To Install a Theme Pack</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
To install a theme, unpack your theme into your <tt>WindowMaker</tt> directory
|
||||
(the same as old-style themes), usually <tt>~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker</tt>
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
<tt>cd ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker</tt><br>
|
||||
<tt>gzip -dc "xyztheme.tar.gz" | tar xvf -</tt>
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
You can also do this in your system-wide <tt>WindowMaker</tt> directory (usually
|
||||
<tt>/usr/local/share/WindowMaker</tt>) to have the themes be available to all
|
||||
your users. This will probably need to be done with root access.
|
||||
<br><br><br>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>How To Load a Theme</h2>
|
||||
After installing a theme, it will automatically show up in your menu under <b>Appearance -> Themes -> ThemeName</b>.
|
||||
(unless of course you have manually changed your menu to remove this) If you have your Themes menu already opened and
|
||||
pinned to your desktop, you may need to close it and reopen it to have it show the new theme.
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
To manually load the new theme from the command line, use the <tt>setstyle</tt> command. Example:
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
<tt>setstyle xyztheme.themed</tt>
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
Note that if you move the directory of the theme (for example, from
|
||||
<tt>~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Themes</tt> to <tt>/usr/local/share/WindowMaker/Themes</tt>)
|
||||
you will have to reload that theme so that path information is updated.
|
||||
<br><br><br>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>How To Make a Theme Pack</h2>
|
||||
To create a theme pack from your current configuration, use the <tt>getstyle</tt>
|
||||
utility with the <tt>-p</tt> flag. Example:
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
<tt>getstyle -p ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Themes/MyTheme</tt>
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
This will create a theme pack (a new directory in either the current
|
||||
directory or a directory you specify) named <tt>MyTheme.themed</tt>, containing
|
||||
everything it requires, including all pixmap files. In this example,
|
||||
the new theme pack would be made in your <tt>themes</tt> directory and be
|
||||
immediately available in your "Themes" menu.
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
Additionally, you can put a text file named <tt>MyTheme.lsm</tt> in the <tt>MyTheme.themed</tt>
|
||||
directory. This file can contain info like copyrights, credits or whatever.
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
To distribute your theme, just make a <tt>.tar.gz</tt> of the <tt>.themed</tt> directory.
|
||||
This is preferably done from the same directory that you unpack the themes
|
||||
from to maintain consistancy with the old theme format.
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
<tt>cd ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker</tt><br>
|
||||
<tt>tar cvf MyTheme.tar Themes/MyTheme.themed</tt><br>
|
||||
<tt>gzip MyTheme.tar</tt>
|
||||
<br><br><br>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>How To Delete a Theme Pack</h2>
|
||||
Just remove the <tt>.themed</tt> directory. Example:
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
<tt>cd ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Themes</tt><br>
|
||||
<tt>rm -fr themename.themed</tt>
|
||||
<br><br><br>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>How To Save Disk Space</h2>
|
||||
If you have more than 1 theme that use the same huge background image,
|
||||
you can delete all the duplicated files and then create hard links in
|
||||
place of them. For example, if you have:
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
<tt>theme1.themed/back.jpg</tt>
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
<tt>theme2.themed/backimage.jpg</tt>
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
<tt>theme3.themed/back.jpg</tt>
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
and all three files contain the same image, you can do:
|
||||
<br><br>
|
||||
<tt>rm theme2.themed/backimage.jpg</tt><br>
|
||||
<tt>rm theme3.themed/back.jpg</tt><br>
|
||||
<tt>ln theme1.themed/back.jpg theme2.themed/backimage.jpg</tt><br>
|
||||
<tt>ln theme1.themed/back.jpg theme3.themed/back.jpg</tt>
