=head2 NAME

 icewm-theme - icewm theme configuration file

=head2 SYNOPSIS

 $ICEWM_PRIVCFG/theme
 $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/icewm/theme
 $HOME/.icewm/theme
 /etc/icewm/theme
 /usr/share/icewm/theme

=head2 DESCRIPTION

The F<theme> file contains the name of the default theme.  On startup
B<icewm> reads this file to obtain the theme name, unless B<icewm> was
started with the B<--theme> option.  Whenever a different theme is
selected from the B<icewm> Menu then the theme file is overwritten with
the name of the selected theme.

=head2 FORMAT

This theme file contains the keyword C<Theme>, followed by an equals
sign, followed by a double-quoted string with the theme name.  The theme
name is the name of the theme directory, followed by a slash, followed
by the theme file.

Usually the theme file is just F<default.theme>, but a theme may have
alternatives.  Alternatives are small tweaks of a theme.  These are
specified in their own F<.theme> file, which replaces F<default.theme>.

If no theme file exists then B<icewm> will use the default setting of
C<Theme="default/default.theme">.

=head2 EXAMPLES

Following is my current F<theme> file.  You can see from the comments
that L<icewm(1)> keeps a history of the previous ten theme settings.

    Theme="Unexicon-towers/default.theme"
    #Theme="Unexicon-pedestals/default.theme"
    ##Theme="Unexicon-penguins/default.theme"
