This is a great resource and many of them look perfect for my needs. What's the best way to install/use one of these? (while I may have been using X since version 10.2, I seldom mess with such things and don't really know the best starting point) For example, I downloaded 'ClearLooks Dark Orange' which gave me a single file "Clearlooks-DarkOrange/gtk-2.0/gtkrc". How do I install this and make it stick on my target?
