These will appear with KDE's style +control panel's combobox of styles. To create a new theme, select 'QtCurve' from +within KDE's style panel, then configure QtCurve as required. After this, in QtCurve's +config dialog, select 'Export theme' from the options menu button. You will then be +prompted to give your new 'theme' a name, and a comment. QtCurve will then create a file +named 'qtc_<name>.themerc (e.g. qtc_klearlooks.themerc) - this will have the following +format: + + [Misc] + Name=KlearLooks + Comment=Clearlooks inspired style + [KDE] + WidgetStyle=qtc_klearlooks + [Settings] + animatedProgress=false + appearance=gradient + ....rest of qtcurve settings... + +To use this theme, either copy qtc_<name>.themerc to +$KDEHOME/share/apps/kstyle/themes/ (usually ~/.kde/share/apps/kstyle/themes/) +or copy to <kde install prefix>/share/apps/kstyle/themes/ (usually +/usr/share/apps/kstyle/themes/) + +When KDE's style panel is restarted, your new theme should appear in the list. + + +Creating Distribution Packages +------------------------------ + +CMake (as of v2.4.x) does not support building rpm or deb packages, and a simple +checkinstall will not work. CMake 2.6 should support rpm and deb packages, but until +then I have supplied a simple shell script to build a package with checkinstall. +To use this: + +1. Install QtCurve as described above +2.
