Actually, xchat *isn't* GTK -- it uses standard X libs, which are typically not all that appealing to look at. No way to theme them, really, without doing a lot of stuff in config files. > How abouts do i go using GTK themes so GTK apps look fine in > Enlightenment?

There's a pachage called 'gtk-theme-switch' with a program called 'switch' that will allow you to apply GTK1 themes; you can also grab a more recent source tarball from www.muhri.net that will allow you to switch GTK2 themes. As for how you make them 'look fine', simply browse on themes.freshmeat.net and try and find one to your tastes. You may also need to install some additional theme engines (most should be available via apt-get). -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://matthew.weierophinney.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
