## Installation

0. Enable the default dark theme (Tools > Add-ons > Theme > Dark)

1. Download this repository and rename the folder to `chrome`.

2. Place the `chrome` folder inside your Thunderbird profile directory. To find your profile directory, you can do the following from within Thunderbird:

	- Help > Troubleshooting Information > Application Basics section > Profile Folder > Show in Finder

3. (Optional) To change the background and text area of the message composition pages, you can dd the following lines to your `user.js` file within the profile directory (this will not alter the appearance of sent messages):

```js

user_pref("browser.display.foreground_color", "#b1b1b3");

user_pref("browser.display.background_color", "#38383d");

```

The `user.js` does not exist be default; you will have to create the file (name and case sensitive) if you haven't done so in the past. 

4. Restart Thunderbird
