I apologise for auto-overwriting ~/.gtkrc by default, but it is all due to GTK stupidity. Basically it has mechanism to notify apps of gtkrc change, but unless timestamp of ~/.gtkrc has changed - this mechanism don't work. Same thing about KDE - it is rather silly as well : It allows you to generate your own colorscheme file, but it will also need to be duplicated in kdeglobals My own recommendation is to edit : ~/.afterstep/gtkrc_template, ~/.afterstep/gtkrc-20_template, and ~/.afterstep/kcsrc_template BTW menu now has an items for autoopening config files in editor of your choice: Menu/Desktop/Config Files It will do the task of copying files from shared directory into your private directory automagically, if those files are not in private dir.
