firstly i'm operating on little sleep so my apologies in advance for any incoherance.

i ran some tests with how the gtk2 themes work with gok... running from a gnome-head session (about a week old)...

but first some background; the gok currently has two modes: 1. ignore gtk theme
2. don't ignore gtk theme

currently 1 is not working the way we imagined -- for some themes only our font colour is making it through, but the button theme background is dominating the keys. the overall effect is not pretty.

2 seems to work as expected, we don't load our gok.rc file and simple adopt the gtk theme for our keys (buttons). one thing that we will have to address though, is the setting of the buttons as insensitive. Xthe latest iteration of the gok simply uses style to show a button is non useable, and since the font colour is not enough to convey this we have a problem -- we should probably go back to programmatically disabling keys. btw, aqua gok looks kinda groovy.

solutions:
1.
- don't use gtk buttons in this mode? ouch...

2.
- programmatically disable and enable buttons (keys)

thoughts?

~~David
