INTRODUCTION

Kotler's GUI Stuff for AROS is a collection of GUI-related stuff for AROS.
Toolbars, Bitmap fonts, Pointers, and instructions on how to make
your Shell have black or white background.


In detail:

- New Toolbars for a few popular AROS applications OWB*, MPlayer, AROSPDF and
ZuneArc.
 *) Includes a custom scrollbar.

- Bitmap Fonts suitable for use as 'Title Font' and 'Tiny Font' in the Zune
Preferences,
  as replacement for the Helvetica font.

- Classic pointers, such as AmigaOS 2.x, Mac, Windows, Bebox, for use with the
new Pointer Preferences
  (Three colour).

- Instructions on how to edit your Shell-Startup script to a get a Shell with
black background
   and white text.


TOOLBARS/ICONS

To install these images, just replace the directory containing
the images with the corresponding application image directory.

OWB: "OWB/Resources" 
MPlayer: "MPlayer/images"
AROSPDF: "ArosPDF/Images"
ZuneArc: "ZuneArc/Icons"

Also, please make a backup of your old images directory before
trying these new.


FONTS

Suitable replacements for the 'Title Font' and the 'Tiny Font'
in Zune. As Truetype fonts with anti-aliasing gets a bit too blurred,
this is a few alternative fonts for use as small fonts.


Copy them to FONTS:
