This is a Python script to extract GNOME/GTK's color scheme and apply it to Wine, so that the themes (approximately) match.

Instructions:

1. Set your Gnome theme as you would like it
2. Run with a command like "python wine_colors_from_gtk.py"
3. Restart any apps running in Wine. They should match the Gnome theme colors now.

This is also stored on https://code.launchpad.net/~endolith/+junk/wine-color-scraper Just trying out gist.github.com...

To do:

• Needs to separate out scrapers for each GTK engine where necessary. (Can't an interface for this just be built into the engines instead?)
• Copy Gnome fonts as well as colors. (Not sure where Wine stores these settings.)
• Something would need to call this script every time the Gnome theme is changed.

Everything else is working for me.

wineconfig.py and winewrite.py scripts in Guidance package for KDE do the same things:
