Btw, I have a really dumb question: How do I use a .msstyle theme? I know that this would better asked on wine-users, but now theming was mentioned I ask here.
Brian, praise be to his name, explains this in the latest WWN issue. He also posted some screenshots, though the theme he used is IMO a bit ugly :) At work I am using ReLuna Blue which is really nice.
I'd like to see a QT theme bridge too, but a gtk bridge would for the start as there's a qt->gtk theme translator.
That might be hard. Qt is GPLd, so it cannot be linked against proprietary code. However TrollTechs intention was clearly to make money off a free toolkit which is a good business model. I doubt they'd care if somebody did a Wine theming bridge, even if it's technically against the rules.
Another issue is that Qt does not have a particularly good track record of binary compatibility - not entirely TrollTechs fault of course, but still, I suspect it might be hard to get into CVS and products like Crossover and the mythical as-yet-unwritten Wine autopackage could not distribute it.
