About ZStyle

NEW: ZStyle is released under the GPL on 01/01/2004. You can now download ZStyle, ZStyle-Liquid and ZStyle-Themes and the complete source code directly from this site.

What is it ?

ZStyle is an extension for the orginial Sharp Zarus ROM that allows you to modify the appearance of the Qtopia UI. The current features are:


	Custom styles can be loaded via plugins
	The default font can be changed to any Qt/E supported font
	Color-schemes can be created and edited
	The launcher background can be customized
	Applications can be forced to use the selected style/font (global)
	Since some applications have problems with custom styles or fonts, *ZStyle* includes a user configureable list of applications, that should not get a custom style or font

Which Hardware platforms are supported ?

ZStyle currently supports these platforms (version 1.4):


	SL-5000d
	SL-5500 and SL-5500G
	SL-5600
	(C-700 and C-750 will probably be supported in the next release)

Which ROM versions are supported ?

ZStyle currently supports these ROMs (version 1.4):


	Sharp ROM 2.3x and the 2.3xG (german) versions
	Sharp ROM 3.10
	Crow ROM variant of the 2.3x ROMs

Please note that these are the offically supported ROM versions. ZStyle will probably work on any ROM that uses the standard /opt/QtPalmtop/qpe.sh startup-script.
