.SS DESCRIPTION
.IX Subsection "DESCRIPTION"
The \fItheme\fR file contains the name of the default theme.  On startup
\&\fBicewm\fR reads this file to obtain the theme name, unless \fBicewm\fR was
started with the \fB\-\-theme\fR option.  Whenever a different theme is
selected from the \fBicewm\fR Menu then the theme file is overwritten with
the name of the selected theme.
.SS FORMAT
.IX Subsection "FORMAT"
This theme file contains the keyword \f(CW\*(C`Theme\*(C'\fR, followed by an equals
sign, followed by a double-quoted string with the theme name.  The theme
name is the name of the theme directory, followed by a slash, followed
by the theme file.
.PP
Usually the theme file is just \fIdefault.theme\fR, but a theme may have
alternatives.  Alternatives are small tweaks of a theme.  These are
specified in their own \fI.theme\fR file, which replaces \fIdefault.theme\fR.
.PP
If no theme file exists then \fBicewm\fR will use the default setting of
\&\f(CW\*(C`Theme="default/default.theme"\*(C'\fR.
.SS EXAMPLES
.IX Subsection "EXAMPLES"
Following is my current \fItheme\fR file.  You can see from the comments
that \fBicewm\fR\|(1) keeps a history of the previous ten theme settings.
