How to customize grany ?
------------------------

0. User support
1. GTK `rc' files
2. Internationalization
3. Creation of new files



0. Grany now supports `users' (as Gimp does for example), because I believe
 this Unix notion is in the core of Unix power. But let's not digress.

   So, on the first time a user launches Grany (detected by the absence of
 ~/.grany/), a script will be invoked (I ripped the idea and the script from
 Gimp) which will create ~/.grany/, copy the RC file (see 1. for more details),
 then copy the example Grany files (you will see this happening on the error
 output stream).



1. Grany support GTK `rc' files. These files are intended to have a look-like
  of GTK different for each user or even each application.

  To setup the look of your GTK applications, just put a ~/.gtkrc file with
  appropriate values. (please install gtk+-engines for more details.)

  Now Grany can have its own themes. Please erase ~/.grany/granyrc by your
  own nice GTKRC file.

  My personal advice: go to http://gtk.themes.org, there's many themes and
  certainly one for you!



2. Grany supports internationalization, which means it will speak in french
  if you setup your LANGUAGE environment string to `fr'. Please have a look
  to ../README.i18n for more details.



3. In the `Phase parameters' window of the gui, the program proposes you a
  suite of rules file (in the second page of the notebook).
  These files are read from your own directory, which should contain at least
  the rules copied during the user-installation, in:
	~/.grany/files/rules/

  So if you are bored with our initial rules please delete the installed rules
  files. In the other hand, if you create some wonderful new rules, don't
  forget to write them in your home directory, for example:
	~/.grany/files/rules/wonderful1
	~/.grany/files/rules/brilliant2.rule
	~/.grany/files/rules/amazing3.anything.you.like.extension
	...

[ IMPORTANT: ]
    At the beginning of the program, the `file' dialogs will go automatically
  to ~/.grany/files/
    And through your Grany session, program will keep in mind where your last
  file was loaded and open the next time the `open a file' in the last
  directory. Same for `save as'.
