HAHAHA, Ok but keep in mind this is in no way "official", and will
require a bit of work in your script (not to mention is incredibly
hackish) ;)
Basically, what you are going to do is decompile the existing e.cfg file
(usually in ~/.e/e/config/standard/e.cfg) using eet:
'eet -d /path/to/e.cfg config /path/to/temporary/e.src'
This will output the current E config settings into a text file called
e.src. Now you can run a 'sed' or something on e.src and replace the
theme filename. What you are looking for in the e.src file is something
like this:
group "themes" list {
group "E_Config_Theme" struct {
value "category" string: "theme";
value "file" string:
"/usr/share/enlightenment/data/themes/default.edj";
}
}
Just sed the "file" line with the new theme, and save the file.
Now you need to recompile it into binary:
'eet -e /path/to/e.cfg config /path/to/e.src 1'
Restart E (assuming the new e.cfg is still in the standard place) and
done. Should work ... in theory ;)
