Kopete Reloading Kit aims to enhance the graphical user interface (GUI) of Kopete software.
Kopete Reloading Kit is a great tool for those seeking to improve the GUI of Kopete. Over the past few months, Kopete has had little visual change, besides its cool styling feature. Users can see in the screenshot provided, the current result of the developer's attempts to refresh the contact list visual aspect.
The purpose of this project is to offer a variety of well-made patches that will allow Kopete users to customize their favorite IM client without needing to write a single line of C++. Everything is stored as bitmaps, which means that anyone can create their theme with the right tools, such as Gimp, and only a few minutes of patience. It's important to note that the screenshot seen isn't just a mockup, but is what is currently displayed on the developer's computer. They have plans to improve it before releasing the first pack.
It's also essential to know that users will have to fully compile the Kopete source code to benefit from these functionalities, as it is a patch archive. The only requirement to use the Reloading Kit is to have Kopete. This first release includes a skin, patch, and a readme explaining how to install it, making it a user-friendly option for those looking to improve their Kopete IM experience.
