Description-en: theme engines for GTK+ 2.x
This package contains the "engines" that hide behind the themes for
GTK+ and GNOME applications. They redefine the way GTK+ widgets are
drawn. The package includes the following engines:
* Clearlooks, the default GNOME theme, based on Bluecurve;
* Crux, formerly known as the Eazel engine;
* High contrast, which is used by some accessibility themes;
* Industrial, the famous engine from Novell (formerly Ximian);
* LighthouseBlue, another engine based on Bluecurve;
* Metal, which gives a metallic look;
* Mist, a flat and high performance engine;
* Redmond95, which provides a look similar to that of Windows;
* ThinIce.
.
A few sample themes using these engines are also included.
