hello.


I do not seem to have a .gtkrc file

should I just create one and put the above mentioned commands in it?

I have a feeling that it will not work :/

.gtkrc is for gtk1. you want .gtkrc-2.0, and, as I said, don't touch it if you are using gnome, and if you are using gtk-chtheme or something like that you'd better use .gtkrc.mine so that your changes don't get overridden.

Btw, all these files should be in your home folder.

@ dioxmat

Thank you for your patience with me, I have no experience whatsoever of fiddling with the gtk themes.

it now works :)

I had to emerge gtk-chtheme to get a ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file, I then created .gtkrc.mine and in there I put the two lines

Code:


gtk-key-theme-name = "Emacs"
gtk-can-change-accels = 1



I also ran
Code:
 gtk-chtheme
and changed some stuff, all gtk apps now looks so much better.

so, Thanks again, you have saved my teeth from alot of grinding 8)

Hmm... I've just emerged firefox-1.0_pre-r2, and for some reason the search box doesn't work any more... It just sits there. I've deleted my compreg.dat file, and it doesn't seem to have made a blind bit of difference. Has anyone else noticed this?

Edit: Ack, this is intensely annoying - I didn't even realise how much I used it!
