### 17.4. Custom application integration

If $FVWM_USERDIR/libexec/colormgr.local exists, Color Style Manager will run it if it's checkbox is selected. This script program will be run with a full path of CDE palette file, followed by the number of colors selected in the interface (4 or 8). This can be useful for regenerating settings of applications which do not use X resources, and neither GTK nor Qt, but have support for some level of customization of this resources. Also "skins" for programs like smplayer, audacious and Gkrellm can be processed from custom colormgr.local. Many of the programs are already defined in the `$NSCDE_DATADIR/config_templates/colormgr.addons` and will be enabled by default, or can be enabled in installed example $FVWM_USERDIR/libexec/colormgr.local.

In the directory `$NSCDE_DATADIR/config_templates/Gkrellm` is the complete NsCDE theme for the Gkrellm. In the `$NSCDE_DATADIR/config_templates/colormgr.addons` there are already ready made functions for Gkrellm, mate-terminal, konsole, qterminal, xfce4-terminal, firefox and thunderbird. User's additions for further integrating programs into Motif and CDE like NsCDE scheme can be added into user's $FVWM_USERDIR/libexec/colormgr.local, contributions are also very welcome.
