+.SS What is a Style?
+A style is basically a theme for the 
+.IR Fluxbox(1)
+window manager. It is a simple ASCII text file that tells Fluxbox how
+to generate the appearance of the different components of the window manager.
+The default installation of Fluxbox is shipped with many classic styles that
+show the customization of current Fluxbox versions. They are usually located in
+.IR ~/.fluxbox/styles
+and in the global Fluxbox share directory
+.IR @pkgdatadir@/styles
+which may vary depending on the method of installation used. To use one of
+the styles shipped with Fluxbox, look in your root menu under the configure
+part of the menu for 'System Styles'.
+.PP
+Fluxbox uses its own graphics class to render its images on the fly.  By using
+style files, you can determine at a great level of configurability what your
+desktop will look like.  Fluxbox styles are compatible with those of the
+Blackbox window manager (where Fluxbox originated).  Users migrating from
+Blackbox can use their current favourite themes.
+
+.SH STRUCTURE OF STYLES
+The style is made up of a few major components which then have their own
+sub-directives. The toolbar, menu, slit and window are the major components.  The
+.IR window.*
+directives control the appearance of your window frames,
+.IR window.tab.*
+controls the appearance of the window tabs.
+.IR menu.*
+controls the appearance of the popup menu that you see when you right click
+on the desktop.
+.IR toolbar.*
+is the bar you will see at the top or bottom of your screen. Finally the
+.IR slit.*
+has options you can use to customize the appearance of the slit. However
+if you don't set the slit directives specifically, the slit's appearance is controlled
+by the
+.IR toolbar.*
+directives instead.
+.PP
+To understand how the style mechanism works, it is nice to know a litte about how
+X11 resources work.
+.PP
+X11 resources consist of a key and a value.  The key si constructed of several smaller
+keys (sometimes referred to as children), delimited by a period (.).  Keys may also
+contain a asterisk (*) to serve as a wildcard, which means that one line of typed text
+will match several keys.  This is useful for styles that are based on one or two colors.
+
+.SH LOCATION OF STYLES
+We'll cover quickly where styles can be found and placed after you create your own.
+.PP
+There are a number of default styles that come with the installation, while we have already
+covered this, we will again just provide a central location for all style locations.  These
+default styles are located in
+.IR @pkgdatadir@/styles
+providing a default configureation at installation.
+.PP
+Once you create your own, you can create a directory in
+.IR ~/.fluxbox/
+called 'styles'.  While there isn't an official structure of how to package your style, one way that is recommended is creating a directory named after your style and placing your pixmaps directory in there along with a theme.cfg.  The theme.cfg file being your created style.  So for example if I created a style called 'MyStyle' I would create the following:
+.EX
+mkdir -p ~/.fluxbox/styles/MyStyle
+cd ~/.fluxbox/styles/MyStyle
+mkdir pixmaps
+vi theme.cfg (this being where you design your style with
+              the necessary components)
+.EE
+If you follow this, the path to your pixmaps will be:
+.IR ~/fluxbox/styles/MyStyle/pixmaps
+which makes it a bit easier to setup up and distribute your style.
+
+.SH CREATING STYLES
+As discussed in the
+.IR STRUCTURE
+section of this man page, Fluxbox allows you to configure its four main components: the toolbar, the menus, the
+slit and the window decorations.  Remember that you can customize the slit with its own
+directives, but if you don't, it will take the appearance of the toolbar.
+.PP
+Here are some quick examples to illustrate basic syntax:
+.EX
+toolbar.clock.color: green
+.EE
+This sets the color resource of the toolbar clock to 'green'.  Another example:
+.EX
+menu*color:     rgb:3/4/5
+.EE
+This sets the color resource of the menu
+.I and all of its 'children'
+to `rgb:3/4/5'.  
+(For a description of color names, see
+.IR X (1).)
+So this one also applies to
+.IR menu.title.color " and " menu.frame.color .
+And with   
+.EX
+*font:  -b&h-lucida-medium-r-normal-*-*-140-*
+.EE
+you set the font resource for all keys to this font name all at once.
+(For information about the fonts installed on your system, you can use a program like
+.IR xfontsel "(1), " gtkfontsel ", or " xlsfonts "(1).)"
+.PP
+This last example brings up wildcards and overrides.  In a Fluxbox style you can set a value
+with a wild card.  The previous example means that every font in the style will be what is
+specified.  You can do this with any value.  For example if you wanted all of the text to be one
+color you could do:
+.EX
+*textColor:  rgb:3/4/5
+.EE
+This means you can setup a very simple style with very few properties.  See
+.IR EXAMPLES
+below for an example of this in practice.  You can also override wildcards in the style
+file.  Lets take our example above and add an override for the toolbar.clock.textColor:
+.EX
+*textColor: rgb:3/4/5
+toolbar.clock.textColor: rgb:255/0/0
+.EE
+With that all of the text will be 'rgb:3/4/5' except the toolbar clock text which will be 'rgb:255/0/0'
+.PP
+Now, what makes Fluxbox just so spectacular, is its ability to render textures
+on the fly.
+Texture descriptions are specified directly to the key that they
+should apply to, e.g.:
+.ta \w'toolbar.clock.colorTo:\ 'u
+.EX
+toolbar.clock:  Raised Gradient Diagonal Bevel1
+toolbar.clock.color:    rgb:8/6/4
+toolbar.clock.colorTo:  rgb:4/3/2
+.EE
+Don't worry, we will explain right now!
+A texture description consists of up to five fields, which are as follows:
+.TP
+.B Flat / Raised / Sunken
+gives the component either a flat, raised or sunken appearance.
+.TP
+.B Gradient / Solid
+tells Fluxbox to draw either a solid color or a gradient texture.
+.TP
+.B Horizontal / Vertical / Diagonal / Crossdiagonal / Pipecross / Elliptic / Rectangle / Pyramid
+Select one of these texture types. They only work when also
+.B Gradient
+is specified!
+.TP
+.B Interlaced
+tells Fluxbox to interlace the texture (darken every other line).
+This option is most commonly used with gradiented textures, but from Fluxbox
+version 0.60.3 on, it also works in solid textures.
+.TP
+.B Bevel1 / Bevel2
+tells Fluxbox which type of bevel to use.
+Bevel1 is the default bevel.
+The shading is placed on the edge of the image.
+Bevel2 is an alternative.
+The shading is placed one pixel in from the edge of the image.
+.PP
+Instead of a texture description, also the option
+.B ParentRelative
+is available, which makes the component appear as a part of its parent, e.g.
+totally transparent.
+.PP
+Or for even more possibilities
+.B Pixmap .
+If pixmap texture is specified (it might not be necessary on every occasion)
+the pixmap file is specified in a separate pixmap resource.
+.EX
+toolbar.clock: pixmap
+toolbar.clock.pixmap: .fluxbox/styles/mine/clock_background.xpm
+.EE
+This feature might need some investigation, reports say that sometimes
+the resources color and colorTo must be set and then they may not be set.
+.PP
+All gradiented textures are composed of two color values: the
+.IR color " and " colorTo " resources."
+When
+.B Interlaced
+is used in
+.B Solid
+mode, the
+.I colorTo
+resource is used to find the interlacing color.
+.PP
+.SH A WORD ABOUT FONTS
+We should comment about fonts before we move on to the complete component
+list.  
+.PP
+Fluxbox supports different options for text.  These options currently include bold and shadow.  To set these do this, fontname-size:options, for any of the font components in the style file.  For example:
+.EX
+menu.title.font: sans-8:bold,shadow
+.EE
+If you have problems installing fonts or getting them to work, you should read the docs page at xfree.org.  Here is a link to one of these: http://xfree.org/4.3.0/fonts2.html#3.
+.SH FULL COMPONENT LIST
+Here is the complete component list, together with which kind of value they take.
+Comments are preceded with an exclamation sign (!), which is also used for
+comments in Fluxbox style c.q. X resource files.
+.PP
