libtheme
========

this is a theming library for the plan 9 graphics system.

theme files are in ndb format. there is a sample in lib/theme.

theme files are read from $home/lib/theme, or /lib/theme if there is no theme file in $home.

applications using the theme library should call `themeget` to find color values. for example:

```
ulong col = themeget("rio", "background", DBlack);
```

this will look up an ndb record in the theme file that looks like this:

```
theme=rio
background=red
```

if the key `background` doesn't exist, it will fall back to DBlack.

installation
============

```
mk install
cp lib/theme $home/lib/theme
