Here is a small summary of xitk hidden features ;-)
         ---------------------------------------------------

    - xitk can be slightly tuned for user requirements (read: you can
made small changes). You can change default colors, fonts, and timers.

			       RC file
			       -------
User can add a '.xitkrc' in their home directory or 'xitkrc' in the '.xine' directory,
and system admins can add a 'xitkrc' file in /etc (system wide rc file). 
The first one found will be used, the others will be ignored.

NOTE: colors can be: pixel color value, tripled value or named colors (see widget.c)

Each entries are optional.
