The script (addon):
http://www.ancyker.org/scripts/themex.htm

now i was playing with the coding...keeping everything organized with menus seems like a good idea, but a friend suggested skiping the menus, and just using tabs, but im not sure, plus extra feature suggestions would be helpful to, and ways to improve it...

Currently i use a mix of hash tables (to store the themes), and variables (to store settings, and the currently active theme), and now i use one dialog (use to be 2, 1 for options, 1 for editing)

I'm trying to make this good but i'm still debating what to add...

It out puts like this btw: .:00:33:07.Ancyker:. hi

3 ways:
1. learn mdx and use a richedit.
2. use a picwin
3. use html to create a file and then use remove to delete it after previewing.

"1. learn mdx and use a richedit."

afaik, dz doesn't provide any documentation on the richedit control, making me assume there is something inherently wrong with it.

edit: sorry, there is nothing necessarily wrong with it, it is just labelled "unfinished/planned".

I think the fullstop-colon-BLAH-colon-fullstop themes are over rated and are almost as common as a white channel background now. It all comes down to personal taste of course but it's not for me.
