22To build the theme editor, you will need a Qt development environment with the
23Qt core and GUI libraries and qmake, along with standard C and C++ compilers
24and libraries. To compile, cd to the source directory and run the "qmake"
Robert Bieber88f4a242010-06-08 00:01:36 +000025command followed by "make". This will produce the binary "themeeditor".
26
27The binary will launch a GUI application that will allow you to create, open,
28edit and save WPS files. Editing takes place in the central tabbed text editor.
29Docks on the edges of the main window will show you a file tree, an empty
30"Skin Preview," and a parse tree of the current document. At present, only the
31parse tree and the editor work correctly. You can close all the other panels
32by clicking the 'x' buttons at their corners, if you desire. You can also
33rearrange and resize panels any way you please, including tearing them off into
34separate windows.
35
36From the preferences dialog (found in the File menu, or by pressing Ctrl+P), you
37can change the font and color scheme of the editor and syntax highlighter.
38
39If you catch a bug (other than unimplemented features, which abound at this
40stage) or think of a feature you'd like to see implemented, you can send me an
41email at robby(at)bieberphoto(dot)com, or catch me on the #rockbox IRC channel
42on Freenode.
