Description

This command sets the color scheme and widget shapes used in the GUI. OOF2 uses the gtk+ graphics toolkit from Gnome. Gnome themes may be downloaded from http://art.gnome.org/themes/gtk2/. OOF2 will look for themes in the system themes directory and in the .themes subdirectory in the your home directory.

To automatically set the theme for all OOF2 sessions, put this command in the file .oof2rc in your home directory, for example: 

      OOF.Settings.Theme(theme="Metal")

Alternatively, it's possible to set the theme for all gtk+ programs by putting a line like this:


      gtk-theme-name = "Metal"
    

in the .gtkrc-2.0 file in your home directory.
