The OSX theme is a customization program for the GNOME desktop environment that provides a sleek and modern look mimicking Apple's macOS operating system. It allows users to personalize their Linux desktop to resemble the user interface of Apple products, including icons and wallpaper.
Dualism is a GTK theme designed for customisation, featuring a preprocessor script that enables easy modification of the theme's appearance. The preprocessor performs calculations based on the user's input values for brightness and contrast to create a new theme with a built-in template, which can still be manually edited. The package comes with a pre-built configuration for convenience.
The preprocessor supports the generation of themes that work well with the Gnome2 Global Menu Bar project, as long as the globalmenu=1 setting is specified. To run the preprocessor, users can navigate to the folder where the theme is stored (usually ~/.themes/Dualism) and execute the `./customize.rb` command. Running the `./customize.rb help` command will provide more information about how to use the script. Ruby must be installed to run the customization scripts.
Users can try out various settings by executing the customization script with different input values. For example, `./customize.rb globalmenu=1 contrast=0.85 notebook=1.1 tree_contrast=1.2`. The complete list of options and their defaults is provided, including GTK RC Parameters such as button_contrast, contrast and menu_sel.
Installing Dualism is a straightforward process. Users can right-click on their desktop, select Change Desktop Background, go to the Theme tab, and then drag and drop the theme's archive in the Appearance Preferences window. If installation is successful, the user will receive a confirmation message and can activate the theme by clicking on it.
GNOME, the graphical user interface which sits on top of a computer operating system, is an international effort to build a complete desktop environment entirely from free software. GNOME is part of the GNU Project and can be used with various Unix-like operating systems, most notably Linux, and as part of Java Desktop System in Solaris. The GNOME project emphasises simplicity, usability, and making things 'just work'.
