              calculate the pager's size. Things in the pager window are shown at 1/number of the
              actual size.

       DeskTopSize W x H

              on colorscheme changes. Default is ~/.gtkrc-2.0. Change to prevent mangling of your
              own gtkrc. More sensible approach is to edit the template.

              colorscheme changes for GTK 1.x  apps.  Default  is  ~/.gtkrc.  Change  to  prevent
              mangling of your own gtkrc. More sensible approach is to edit the template.
