However, for this to work correctly gnome-settings-daemon needs to be running (since theming is a desktop wide issue rather than an application one). This normally happens when a GNOME session is started but if you only want to run specific applications (more common on MacPorts) then you can start it by hand by executing
/opt/local/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon --replace & which will then run as long as you are logged in. Ignore the various startup messages on the console. In the case of gnome-terminal, this will make the difference between all tabs looking identical and the active tab being clearly highlighted (with a blue accent at the top using the default theme). _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
