GKRellm : Création thème

Retourner sur la page GKrellM

:info: Simple copie de la source

Intro
-----
The GKrellM structure is a framed stack of monitors and there are two
monitor types, Charts and Meters, which have background images applied
to drawing areas.  Charts have two drawing areas, the chart area and the
panel area.  Meters have one drawing area, the meter area.
Most theme images and options are applied at this level and many can
be specified to apply to a particular Chart or Meter monitor.

A theme is a directory in one of the locations: ~/.gkrellm/themes,
/usr/local/share/gkrellm/themes or /usr/share/gkrellm/themes.  If a
"gkrellmrc" file exists in a theme directory, it is parsed for theme
specific settings such as borders, margins, colors, and krell parameters.
The theme directory also has images for the frame, background images for
each of the drawing areas, and detail images (decals and krells) which
are drawn on panel and meter areas.


Terminology:
------------
Chart monitor -  A monitor type which has two background areas - a
chart area with a bg_chart image as a background, and a panel area
with a bg_panel image as a background.  Labels, decals, and krells
are drawn in panel areas.

Meter monitor -  A monitor type which has a single background area - a
meter area with a bg_meter image as a background.  Labels, decals,
and krells are also drawn in meter areas.

Decals are pixmap graphics or text elements such as LEDs, button images,
toggling labels, etc. placed in fixed locations in panel or meter
areas.  These may have transparency and may overlap.

Krells are pixmap graphics which are programatically moved horizontally
across the face of a panel or meter area.  They implement meter indicator
movements, moving animations, and slider controls.  Krells may have
transparency and they move over decals.

Image Structure:
----------------
All theme images are either base level images which are in the toplevel
of the theme directory, or monitor specific theme images which are placed
in subdirectories of the toplevel.  All base level images have a default
which will be used if it is not provided in a theme.

Excluding detail and optional images (see below), here is the base set of
images required for a theme change in GKrellM (.png used as an example).

	F : frame_top.png
	f : frame_bottom.png
	  : frame_left.png
	  : frame_right.png
	c : bg_chart.png           a chart area background
	p : bg_panel.png           a panel area background
	m : bg_meter.png           a meter area background
	  : bg_grid.png            a chart area background grid line
	  : bg_separator.png       a chart area data view separator

This is a side section view showing how these images are used to build
GKrellM.  frame_left/right and bg_grid are not shown and not all
monitors are shown.

====================================================================
Theme Image Names
-----------------
The background areas, krells, or some monitor detail images can have
a monitor specific custom image substituted for the base level default
image.  For a custom image to take effect, it only has to exist in the
monitor specific subdirectory.

Here is a table showing the image naming structure in a theme directory. 
Images may be .png as shown or .jpg or .xpm.

Base level images in the top level of the theme directory
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
frame_top.png
frame_bottom.png
frame_left.png
frame_right.png
--------------------

data_out_grid.png


Custom images in the theme subdirectories
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Builtin Chart monitor theme subdirectories are:
	cpu, disk, inet, net, proc

Builtin Meter monitor theme subdirectories are:
	apm, cal, clock, fs, host, mail, mem, timer, uptime

Plugins will each have their own theme subdirectory which can be
determined from the plugin documentation.

All builtin or plugin Chart monitor theme subdirectories may have the
custom images:

	bg_chart.png
	bg_grid.png
	bg_panel.png
	krell.png
	spacer_top.png
	spacer_bottom.png


All builtin or plugin Meter monitor theme subdirectories may have the
custom images (however, not all may use the krell.png):

	bg_meter.png	(bg_panel.png is accepted for convenience)
	krell.png
	spacer_top.png
	spacer_bottom.png


In addition to the above custom images, each builtin or plugin may
have additional images which are extension to the theme.  And they
may also accept custom Style, integer, string, or image border settings
in the gkrellmrc.  Plugins should document what these images and
custom settings are and how they are used.  The builtin theme gkrellmrc
settings will be listed later in the gkrellmrc section, while the builtin
image extensions are listed here:

cpu:
	cpu/nice.png
	cpu/nice_grid.png

net:
	net/decal_net_leds.png

mail:
	mail/decal_mail.png
	mail/krell_penguin.png

mem:
	mem/krell_buffers.png
	mem/krell_cache.png

Theme Image Descriptions
---------------------------
--- Background images -----

frame_top.png
	The rendered height can be set with frame_top_height and a border
	specified with frame_top_border in gkrellmrc.
	Transparency is allowed.

frame_bottom.png
	The rendered height can be set with frame_bottom_height and a border
	specified with frame_bottom_border in gkrellmrc.
	Transparency is allowed.

frame_left.png
	The rendered width can be set with frame_left_width and a border
	specified with frame_left_border in gkrellmrc.
	Transparency is allowed.

frame_right.png
	The rendered width can be set with frame_right_width and a border
	specified with frame_right_border in gkrellmrc.
	Transparency is allowed.


bg_chart.png
	The background image for the chart area of a chart monitor.
	To provide custom backgrounds for specific chart monitors,
	theme subdirectories may have a custom version of this image.

bg_grid.png
	This is a 1 or 2 pixel high image which is pasted onto a bg_chart
	background image to show grid lines.  Use it to get nice etched
	grid lines.  It should balance the requirement that it be visible
	yet not distract the eye from the data that is plotted on the
	chart.
	Monitor subdirectories may have a custom version of this image.

bg_separator
	The user may optionally split Charts into data views.   Data views
	on a chart will be separated by this image.  It will be rendered to
	bg_separator_height (specified in the gkrellmrc), which should
	probably be	2 pixels high.

bg_panel.png
	The background image for the panel area of a chart monitor.
	A border for this image can be set in the gkrellmrc.
	Monitor subdirectories may have a custom version of this image.

bg_meter.png
	The background image for the meter areas of meter monitors.
	A border for this image can be set in the gkrellmrc.
	Meter monitor subdirectories may have a custom version of this image
	which for convenience may be named bg_panel.png.

bg_slider_panel.png
	A background or trough for a slider (krell_slider image). It may
	be pasted on top of a bg_panel if a slider is created for a
	chart monitor panel and the monitor coder elects to apply the image.
	If you do not make this image or the monitor coder has not applied it,
	then a slider will simply move over the bg_panel image.  So an
	alternative to this image would be to customize looks with a bg_panel.png.

bg_slider_meter.png
	A background or trough for a slider (krell_slider image).  It may
	be pasted on top of a bg_meter if a slider is created for a
	meter monitor panel and the monitor coder elects to apply the image.
	If you do not make this image or the monitor coder has not applied it,
	then a slider will simply move over the bg_meter.png image.  So, an
	alternative to this image would be to customize looks with a bg_meter.png.


---------------------------
--- Detail images ---------

The default theme images will be used for any of these which do not
exist in your theme directory.

button_panel_out.png
button_panel_in.png
	These are images for a button type where the images for it are
	displayed only when the panel area where they exist has the mouse.
	When this button appears, it is an overlay on a label (or decal)
	to emphasize that the label has been assigned button status
	for launching a command.  Since the button is an overlay, it ideally
	should be a 1 - 3 pixel highlighting border surrounding a transparent
	interior (see the default theme implementation), but it could be a
	semi-transparent special effect image depending on the theme. 
	If these images do not exist in your theme then the button overlay
	will be constructed with a default gray color and may or may not
	look good with your theme.
	Set the border sizes for these images in the gkrellmrc with the
	button_panel_border option.

button_meter_out.png
button_meter_in.png
	Same as for button_panel except for overlay buttons in a meter area.
	Set the border with the button_meter_border option in the gkrellmrc.
	If your bg_meter is similar to bg_panel, then these can be copies of
	the button_panel_in/out images.

krell_panel.png
	A vertical stack of krell frames.  See the Tips and Comments below.
	These are used in the bg_panel areas and are intended to be used
	as fast response indicators on chart monitors.  The default depth
	is 4, although the middle two frames are identical.  If you make
	a custom krell_panel, you must tell GKrellM the depth in the
	gkrellmrc file if it is different from the default.
	Chart monitor subdirectories may have a custom version of this image,
	which should be named krell.png

krell_meter.png
	A vertical stack (default depth 1) of krells used in the bg_meter
	area of meter monitors.  If you make a custom krell_meter, you must
	tell GKrellM the depth in the gkrellmrc file if it is different
	from the default.
	Meter monitor subdirectories may have a custom version of this image,
	which should be named krell.png

krell_slider.png
	A vertical stack (default depth 7) of krells used in the bg_panel
	or bg_meter areas of chart or meter monitors.  If you make a custom
	krell_slider, you must tell GKrellM the depth in the gkrellmrc
	file if it is different from the default.

decal_alarm.png
	A vertical stack of images that are cycled through when an alarm
	is triggered.  These images are usually placed behind a text decal
	to highlight the value that has triggered the alarm.  If you don't
	have sensor voltage monitoring or the APM monitor to play with,
	run "gkrellm -demo" and you will be able to set APM alerts and
	see the decal_alarm and decal_warn in action.  Set the number
	of frames this image has in the gkrellmrc:
	    decal_alarm_frames n

decal_warn.png
	Same as decal_alarm.png, except it is triggered by a less serious
	warning event.  Set the number of frames for this image in the gkrellmrc:
	    decal_warn_frames n

decal_misc.png
	A vertical stack of decals used for various monitors.  I have tried
	to make these theme generic, but you could touch them up to better
	match your theme.

---------------------------------------
--- Optional data plotting  images ----

data_in.png
data_in_grid.png
data_out.png
data_out_grid.png
	If these images exist they are used to plot data on the charts.
	You can have textured or 3D plotted data to go with your bg_chart.
	The data_in_grid and data_out_grid should be 1 or 2 pixel high
	images and are drawn where the plotted data crosses a chart grid line.
	If any of these do not exist data plotting falls back to using the
	in_color and out_color specified in gkrellmrc.  Any shading effect you
	put into a data image should probably track shading on your bg_chart.
	Shading effects are not very apparent on low data density charts,
	so get a big compile or net download going to see the effects.


-----------------------------------------------
--- Monitor specific cosmetic spacer images ---

XXX/spacer_top.png
XXX/spacer_bottom.png
	Most monitors can use bg_XXX images and border settings to get a
	desired appearance.  But some monitors are implemented with multiple
	internal meter panels where these spacer images can be used to fine
	tune the look.  Spacers are rendered to a default height of 3 pixels
	unless set otherwise in the gkrellmrc.  These images have no defaults.
	For example, a meter monitor with two panels can be either of:

	    without spacers:              with spacers:
	---------------------         ---------------------    spacer_top
	|                   |         ---------------------
	|                   |         |                   |    bg_meter
	---------------------         ---------------------
	|                   |         |                   |    bg_meter
	|                   |         ---------------------
	---------------------         ---------------------    spacer_bottom


-------------------------------------------
--- Builtin monitor custom images ----

cpu/nice.png
cpu/nice_grid.png
	Used to plot the cpu nice time data in a color different from either
	the data_in or data_out colors.  If these images don't exist and the
	cpu_nice_color and cpu_nice_grid_color strings are not
	set in the gkrellmrc, cpu nice time will use the data_in color.

mail/krell_penguin.png
	This is the multi frame penguin animation for new mail notification.
	However, it does not have to be a penguin - any altenative will do.
	Frame 0 is displayed when there is no new mail to announce and so
	should be left blank.  When the penguin animation is enabled, new
	mail to announce triggers the display of frames 1 through depth-2
	as an animation moving across the width of the mail monitor panel. 
	Since frame depth-1 is not fully visible, it is not displayed and
	is left blank.  The depth must be specified in the gkrellmrc:
		StyleMeter mail.krell_depth = d

mail/decal_mail.png
	This is the stationary envelope animation in the mailcheck panel.
	If envelope animation is enabled, frame 1 is shown by default and
	a new mail count increase triggers frames 1 through depth-1 to be
	shown as an animation.
	If envelope animation is disabled, frame 1 is shown by default and
	frame 0 is shown when a new mail count increase is detected.
	This image is applied by default to all themes.
	The number of frames is specified in the gkrellmrc file:
		decal_mail_frames n

mem/krell_buffers.png
	An extra krell in the mem panel which shows kernel buffers usage.  It
	should probably be de-emphasized with respect to the main panel krell.
	Offset and depth parameters for it can be set in the gkrellmrc
	(see "Notes on making a GKrellM theme" for expand-mode options):
	    set_integer mem_krell_buffers_yoff y
	    set_integer mem_krell_buffers_depth d
	    set_integer mem_krell_buffers_x_hot x
	    set_string  mem_krell_buffers_expand expand-mode

mem/krell_cache.png
	An extra krell in the mem panel which shows kernel buffers usage.  It
	should probably be de-emphasized with respect to the main panel krell.
	Offset and depth parameters for it can be set in the gkrellmrc
	(see "Notes on making a GKrellM theme" for expand-mode options):
	    set_integer mem_krell_cache_yoff y
	    set_integer mem_krell_cache_depth d
	    set_integer mem_krell_cache_x_hot x
	    set_string  mem_krell_cache_expand expand-mode

net/decal_net_leds.png
	A vertical stack of 4 leds in the order:
			rx_off, rx_on, tx_off, tx_on
	The net LEDs are stenciled onto the bg_panel backgrounds of Net
	chart monitors.  They may have non rectangular shapes with
	transparency.  The rx and tx LEDs may overlap in complex ways
	because they are individually stenciled onto the net bg_panels.

timer/bg_timer.png
	This is a background for the timer part of the TimerButton meter
	monitor and is superimposed on top of its bg_meter.
	It can be used to highlight the timer and visually separate it
	from the button.  A border can be set for it in the gkrellmrc:
		set_image_border timer_bg_timer l,r,t,b

sensors/bg_volt.png
	A framing background for the voltage values of the voltage sensor
	monitor.  Run "gkrellm -demo" using the default theme to see it if
	you don't have hardware sensor monitoring.  You can also set a border
	for this image in the gkrellmrc:
		set_image_border sensors_bg_volt l,r,t,b
	Probably the top and bottom border should be only 1 or 2.

timer/decal_timer_button.png
	This is a vertical stack of button images for the button in the
	TimerButton monitor.  There are 4 frames in the order:
		off, pressed, standby, on



==========================================================================
Notes on making a GKrellM theme
-------------------------------
1) A theme directory can exist anywhere for development purposes and can be
   specified on the command line:
       gkrellm -t theme_dir
   Hit the F5 key to reload a theme as you make changes.

2) Detail images are drawn on bg_panel or bg_meter backgrounds as
   layers and each image may have transparency.

3) Krells have several style parameters which you can set in the gkrellmrc.
   But note: it is possible for a plugin coder to write code such that his
   krell will not honor these settings.  If you can't get a krell to do what
   you want, email me or the plugin author with a wishlist bug request :)

  a) krell_yoff: adjusts a krell's vertical offset into a panel or meter area.

  b) krell_depth:  To build a krell with depth, vertically stack krell images
     in a krell_panel or krell_meter image and specify the number of frames
     in a krell_depth line in the gkrellmrc.  The frame displayed will
     be a function of the depth and horizontal x position of the krell:
       Depth 1: One frame displayed at all positions.
             2: Display frame 0 at x = 0, frame 1 at all other positions.
         n > 2: Display frame 0 at x = 0, frame n-1 at x = full_scale, and
                remaining frames at positions proportional to x/full_scale.

  c) krell_x_hot: is an offset in pixels from the left edge of a krell image.
     Krell images are drawn so that the krell x_hot spot is drawn at the
     current krell position in a panel or meter area (except for bar-mode
     krells, see below).

  d) krell_left_margin & krell_right_margin:
     The range of krell motion across a panel width may be constrained
     between a left and right margin where the margins are number of pixels
     from the left or right panel edge respectively.  These style setings are
     new in GKrellM version 1.2.9.

  e) krell_expand:  The default is for a krell to be drawn at the same size
     as its original image.  But, if a krell_expand value is set, the krell
     width will be rendered to match the width of the GKrellM window.
     The krell_expand values are:
       left: The krell image area from the left edge to the x_hot spot is
           rendered to fit the GKrellM monitor width.  Look at the
           GKrellMSS plugin's VU meter krells for examples of this krell type.
       right: The krell image area from the x_hot spot to the right edge is
           rendered to fit the GKrellM monitor width.  This may not be useful.
       bar-mode: The total krell image width is rendered to fit the GKrellM
           monitor width.  Additionally, the krell x_hot spot is ignored.
           Instead, the krell position is indicated by drawing only the portion
           of the rendered krell image from its left edge to the current
           krell position.  The visual appearance is then a static "bar"
           across the panel width with only the left portion up to
           the current krell position visible.  This is new in version 1.2.5.
       left-scaled, right-scaled, bar-mode-scaled:
           Same as above except the renderering of the krell width is scaled
           to fit the width between the krell left and right margins.  If both
           krell_left_margin and krell_right_margin are zero, these modes are
           equivalent to left, right, and bar-mode respectively.  These are
           new in version 1.2.9

        To sumarize the difference between a bar-mode and left expanded krell:
        * The bar-mode krell position is fixed on a panel and only a
          fractional part of its width is drawn.  The draw is from the krell
          left margin to a right position between the left and right margins
          that corresponds to the current krell value.
        * The left expanded krell position is moved so its x_hot spot is
          placed on a panel at a position corresponding to its current krell
          value.  The entire krell width is drawn but will be clipped at the
          krell left and right margins.
        
4) Run "gkrellm -demo" to see some less frequently used features you may
   not have available or enabled, such as cpu temps or the apm monitor.


=======================================================================
Theme Alternatives
------------------
If there is a line in your gkrellmrc:
    theme_alternatives = N
then you can have 1 to N different gkrellmrc and image alternatives
that can be selected in the Themes tab.  For each alternative N,
you can have an optional gkrellmrc_N whose options will override any
set in the base level gkrellmrc.  If any image_N.png exists, it will
be used in place of the base image.png.  This can be used to give
some flexibility to your theme.  You could have more than one frame
style or different font colors and sizes.  For example if you have
    theme_alternatives = 2
Then you would have 3 gkrellmrc files:
	gkrellmrc        (always applied)
	gkrellmrc_1      (applied after gkrellmrc for theme alternative 1)
	gkrellmrc_2      (applied after gkrellmrc for theme alternative 2)
And you can have alternative images selectively applied depending on
the alternative selected.  If you had these images:
	bg_meter.png
	krell.png
	krell_1.png
	fs/krell.png
	fs/bg_meter_2.png
then, the images would be used:
Default Alternative 0:
	Base images: bg_meter krell    fs monitor images: fs/krell bg_meter
Alternative 1:
	Base images: bg_meter krell_1  fs monitor images: fs/krell bg_meter
Alternative 2:
	Base images: bg_meter krell    fs monitor images: fs/krell fs/bg_meter_2


==========================================================================
The gkrellmrc file
------------------

Adjustments to label positions, margins, label colors/fonts, image borders,
krell parameters, frame rendering, etc  are made in the gkrellmrc file.
Setting these values may have a variable effect on different monitors
because the programmer may use the values to differing degrees.  For
example, margins may affect a label or some text decal but not affect
other text decals because the programmer explicitely centers the decal.

The possible gkrellmrc lines are listed here.

The author line credits the theme maker.  This will appear in the Themes
configuration window.
	author = "yourname  email address"

Theme alternatives are possible, see above.
    theme_alternatives = N

If allow_scaling is true, then net LED position and size is scaled according
to the chart_width/chart_width_ref ratio.  chart_width_ref is the width
you use for designing images and placing LEDs.
	chart_width_ref  = w
	allow_scaling    = {true | false}

Frames can be rendered to heights and widths different from the
drawn image sizes.  0 means use the drawn image width or height.
	frame_top_height  = h
	frame_bottom_height  = h
	frame_left_width  = w
	frame_right_width  = w

Borders for images are specified with comma separated numbers in the order:
    left border, right border, top border, bottom border

Borders for the main GKrellM window frame images.
	frame_top_border = l,r,t,b
	frame_bottom_border = l,r,t,b
	frame_left_border = l,r,t,b
	frame_right_border = l,r,t,b

The data colors plotted on the charts are plotted in two different ways.
If the images data_in.xxx, data_in_grid.xxx, data_out.xxx, and
data_out_grid.xxx exist in the theme dir, they are used to plot data.
If they do not exist, then the colors set here are used.
Grid colors are drawn where the plotted data crosses a grid line.
This allows grid lines to "show through" on high density charts.
Colors are hex triplets ( #rrggbb ) or rgb.txt color names.  Put quotes
around two word rgb_color_names.
	chart_in_color       = { #rrggbb | rgb_color_name }
	chart_in_color_grid  = { #rrggbb | rgb_color_name }
	chart_out_color      = { #rrggbb | rgb_color_name }
	chart_out_color_grid = { #rrggbb | rgb_color_name }

The height of the bg_separator image that separates chart data views.
	bg_separator_height = 2

Some tweaking on drawing the background grid lines.  0 is normal and 1
inhibits grid line drawing at the top and bottom of charts.
This is useful for bg_chart pixmaps that have 3D shading at the top and
bottom and is a cosmetic effect.
	bg_grid_mode = {0,1}

Negative x values here mean justify |x| pixels from right frame.
Positive x values mean justify x pixels from left frame.
Where to put the LEDs of each net interface monitor in its panel:
	rx_led_x = x
	rx_led_y = y
	tx_led_x = -x
	tx_led_y = y

Number of frames in the stationary animated mail decal.  Delay is
number of update ticks between each frame.  Set these if you replace
the default mail decal envelope animation.
	decal_mail_frames = 18
	decal_mail_delay = 1

Number of frames in the alarm and warn decal animation.
	decal_alarm_frames = 10
	decal_warn_frames = 10

There is a krell image used as a slider control.  Set its depth and x_hot
if you replace the default.  You can have a bar mode krell slider if you
set krell_slider_expand to "bar-mode" (for this depth should be 1).
There is one slider krell for all meter areas and panel areas, so style
setting does not apply.
	krell_slider_depth = d
	krell_slider_x_hot = x
	krell_slider_expand = {left | right | bar-mode}  # New in 1.2.5

Set the borders for the background slider trough images.  There is one
image for all panel areas and and one image for all meter areas, so style
setting does not apply.
	bg_slider_panel_border = l,r,t,b
	bg_slider_neter_border = l,r,t,b

Borders for the panel and meter buttons.
	button_panel_border = l,r,t,b
	button_meter_border = l,r,t,b

Fonts.  Use the large/normal/small font names in style settings below to
change the default font assigned to any text.
	large_font  = "-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal-*-*-120-*-*-m-*-iso8859-*"
	normal_font = "-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal-*-*-100-*-*-m-*-iso8859-*"
	small_font  = "-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal-*-*-80-*-*-p-*-iso8859-*"


========= Spacer height settings ============
If you use any top or bottom spacers for monitors you can set something
other than the default 3 pixel height.  "mon" is a chart or meter monitor
style name as listed below for styles (eg, clock, fs, gkrellmms, etc)
	spacer_top_height mon h
	spacer_bottom_height mon h



========= Extension hooks ===========
These are ways to get options set for image or feature extensions which
plugins will use.  Builtins may also use these hooks to set parameters.

If a monitor uses a background image in addition to the standard bg_panel
or bg_chart and its code allows for the image to be themed,
a hook to set the border for that image may have been provided.
It may be necessary to check plugin documentation to find the names, but for
example, say a plugin "frump" uses an additional background image
"bg_special.png" and for setting its border has added an image border
hook "frump_bg_special".  Then if you have made a theme image
frump/bg_special.png for this plugin, you can set the image border with:

	set_image_border  frump_bg_special = l,r,t,b

Plugins also have a way to request integer or string initialization
values from the gkrellmrc.  Again, check for plugin Theme file documentation.
There could be options like:

	set_integer frump_some_integer = n
	set_string  frump_some_color_string = "deep sky blue"

New in version 1.2.9, monitors may also define custom styles by adding
a custom style name field to the StyleMeter or StylePanel lines.   These are
probably most useful when a monitor has additional krells.  If these exist
they should be documented in a plugin's Themes or README file.  For example,
if the frump plugin has a standard default krell and one extension krell
which the plugin writer has named "gas-gauge", then the gkrellmrc can first
set values for the standard krell:

    StyleMeter  frump.krell_depth = 5
    StyleMeter  frump.krell_yoff = 2
    StyleMeter  frump.krell_expand = bar-mode-scaled

The extension gas-gauge krell will use plugin defaults if you do not set
any of its style values.  But when you set its first style value, it will
be initialized to the currently set standard krell values.  So you only
need to specify values that are different from the standard krell, eg:

    StyleMeter  frump.gas-gauge.krell_yoff = 10
    StyleMeter  frump.gas-gauge.krell_expand = none

*Note: if you theme a plugin, it is a good idea to include all of its themable
parameters in your gkrellmrc in case the plugin's default values change and
break your theme.  Do not rely on the default values.


Builtin monitor extension hooks:
--------------------------------
CPU monitor nice data color:
	set_string cpu_nice_color color_string
	set_string cpu_nice_grid_color color_string

Net timer monitor border for the optional bg_timer.png image.  If bg_timer.png
exists, it will be placed inside the top margin and bottom margin and at
the left margin of the timer panel.  The timer display will be placed
inside of the borders.
	set_image_border timer_bg_timer 1,1,2,2

Memory monitor krell_buffers optional image:
	set_integer mem_krell_buffers_yoff 0
	set_integer mem_krell_buffers_depth 1
	set_integer mem_krell_buffers_x_hot -1
	set_string  mem_krell_buffers_expand none   # New in 1.2.5
Memory monitor krell_cache optional image:
	set_integer mem_krell_cache_yoff 0
	set_integer mem_krell_cache_depth 1
	set_integer mem_krell_cache_x_hot -1
	set_string  mem_krell_cache_expand none     # New in 1.2.5


========= Style settings for the monitors. ============
Some options can be set to apply globally to areas of all similar monitors,
or can be set to individually apply only to an area of a specific monitor.
This is done with Style lines which can have a global '*' scope name or a 
specific monitor name.  Since these theme specifications begin at
the monitor drawing area level, there are Style lines for each area.
There are StyleChart and StylePanel lines for the chart and panel
areas in the Chart monitors, and a StyleMeter line for the single
meter area in the Meter monitors.

The builtin Chart monitors are: cpu, proc, disk, inet, and net.
To apply a setting to a particular monitor, replace the '*' with
the monitor name.  Plugin Chart monitor style names may be available
which can also be used in place of the '*'.

The builtin Meter monitors are: apm, cal, clock, fs, host, mail, mem, swap,
   timer, sensors, and uptime.
To apply a setting to a particular monitor, replace the '*' with
the monitor name.  Plugin Meter monitor style names may be available
which can also be used in place of the '*'.

Notes about Style settings for chart, panel, and meter areas:
    1) textcolor line settings are:
	       color shadow_color drawing_effect
       color or shadow_color may be hex #rrggbb or text rgb_color_names, with
       two word rgb_color_names enclosed in quotes.
    2) transparency settings are:
       1 - Forces a totally transparent chart, panel, or meter area.
       2 - For a partially transparent chart, panel, or meter area.	

Notes about Style settings for panel or meter areas only:
    1) label_position is a percent of chart width, so a position of 50
       would center a label.
    2) margins may be used to set all margins at once, or you may individually
       set left_margin, right_margin, top_margin, bottom_margin.  They are used
       for positioning of labels and decal.  margins, left_margin, and
       right_margin are new in 1.2.9.  The old "margin" (no 's') which sets
       both left and right margin to the same value may still be used.
       Krell margins are set independently of panel margins with
       krell_left_margin and krell_right_margin.  Krell vertical positioning
       uses krell_yoff and there are no top or bottom krell margins.
    3) krell_depth is the number of frames in the krell image.
    4) krell_x_hot is an offset into a krell frame. Set to -1 to set x_hot
	   to center.
    5) krell_yoff is an offset from a panel or meter area top for krell
       drawing.
