Holy shit, those things look cool! :-)
The only thing I dislike is that they're huge, and that the default
colors are weird (black foreground on dark background) in my setup.
I would quite like X users to come up with some sensible defaults for this
type of thing. I think I probably got it wrong for the tabs. Under windows
the progress gauge is a standard blue bar. I have not set any face
attributes for the gauge so it should default to gui-element face. Are you
using Athena? I'm not sure how to make the xlwgauge things look good.
I've had enough of X programming, subsequent widget stuff I do will
generally use the base features already implemented. I guarantee that the
mswindows support will look good. Its up to others to make the X support
look good: there are just too many combinations and I don't have the time,
energy or patience to try and please everyone.
