while the subject is hot, icewm themes can also be done. when i used
debian, there is a icewm theme package, and they have a downloadable
tarball of alot of themes (some that arent on themes.org, like
Aalglatt that is very nice).

here is the url, if you want to throw together a icewm theme package:
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/icewm-themes.html

right now i just download the tarball on that page of the themes, and
manually move them to where they need to be. would be nice to have
it in the existing packaging system.

which we are on pkgsrc, i have a general question. why is there a pkgsrc
"sandbox" (/usr/pkg), and not every package installs into there? i like
the idea of /usr/pkg, but it is annoying when it is not always used, and
i have to track down where it installed files. I think all pkgsrc
packages should install in /usr/pkg and this should be enforced from the
people that manage the pkgsrc system. also would be nice to see a fake
install like thing that openbsd "ports" has that is very cool.

just my opinion, please no flamage :)

thanks for reading,
chris
