Themes For Window Maker
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
|
||||
Note: the information contained in this file is only valid for themes
|
||||
in the .themed (for theme directory) format, supported in
|
||||
Window Maker 0.20.4 or newer.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
How To Install a Theme Pack
|
||||
===========================
|
||||
|
||||
To install a theme, unpack your theme into your theme directory,
|
||||
usually ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Themes
|
||||
|
||||
cd ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Themes
|
||||
gunzip -c xyztheme.tar.gz | tar xf -
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
How To Load a Theme
|
||||
===================
|
||||
|
||||
Use the setstyle command to load a theme. Example:
|
||||
|
||||
setstyle xyztheme.themed
|
||||
|
||||
Note that if you move the directory of the theme (for example, from
|
||||
~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Themes to /usr/local/share/WindowMaker/Themes)
|
||||
you will have to reload that theme so that path information is updated.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
How To Make a Theme Pack
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
To create a theme pack from your current configuration, use the getstyle
|
||||
utility with the -p flag. Example:
|
||||
|
||||
getstyle -p MyTheme
|
||||
|
||||
This will create a theme pack named MyTheme.themed, containing everything
|
||||
it requires, including all pixmap files.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, you can put a text file named MyTheme.lsm in the MyTheme.themed
|
||||
directory. This file can contain info like copyrights, credits or whatever.
|
||||
|
||||
To distribute your theme, just make a .tar.gz of the .themed directory.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
tar cf MyTheme.tar MyTheme.themed
|
||||
gzip MyTheme.tar
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
How To Delete a Theme Pack
|
||||
==========================
|
||||
|
||||
Just remove the .themed directory. Example:
|
||||
|
||||
cd ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Themes
|
||||
rm -fr themename.themed
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
How To Save Disk Space
|
||||
======================
|
||||
|
||||
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:
|
||||
|
||||
theme1.themed/back.jpg
|
||||
|
||||
theme2.themed/backimage.jpg
|
||||
|
||||
theme3.themed/back.jpg
|
||||
|
||||
and all three files contain the same image, you can do:
|
||||
|
||||
rm theme2.themed/backimage.jpg
|
||||
rm theme3.themed/back.jpg
|
||||
ln theme1.themed/back.jpg theme2.themed/backimage.jpg
|
||||
ln theme1.themed/back.jpg theme3.themed/back.jpg
|
||||
