New updates to the project!
First off there is a small library that needs to be installed first as this will provide the various widgets for the desktop, window manager and the soon to come panel and dock, I have decided to drop thje use of the athena widget set as although they are always available and pretty lightweight they are awkward to theme and don't look very good.
At the momenty the toolkit only includes three widgets and some general routines, this toolkit is in noway meant to be a full fleged widget set, just the ones you need to run the desktop.
Download the tool kit here:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/...t-0.0.5.tar.gz
Build and install the same as the other bits with
Code:
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install

Some of the naming of the configs have changed so please alter your config file, example:

wmactive_fill #5E3300
wminactive_frame #9B9184
wminactive_fill #836C51
widgetcolour white
There is now a global config file at "~/.config/LFS/lfstoolkit.rc" this will slowly replace the individual config files, heres an example ~/.config/LFS/lfstoolkit.rc:
Code:
window_normal #5E3300
window_prelight #6B4C26
window_active #412502
button_normal #5E3300
button_prelight #6B4C26
button_active #412502
menuitem_normal #cf944e
menuitem_prelight #794513
menuitem_active #412502
menuitem_font sans-serif:size=8
menuitem_font_normal black
menuitem_font_prelight white
menuitem_font_active white
font sans-serif:size=8
font_normal white

The last lines will override the configs in the "~/.config/LFS/lfswmanager.rc" file unless the -k option is given to lfswmanager.
