Features
- Real theme previews generated using libobrender
- Written in Ruby, not a pain in the ass to add new options to it (not 500 callback functions like the C version)
Caveats
- Lags behind openbox development either because I'm lazy or because of school.
- Ubuntu has an old (buggy) version of ruby-gnome2 in its repositories that doesn't work well with Obconf.
Installation
You'll need the following:
- openbox from subversion
svn co svn://svn.icculus.org/openbox/trunk/ openbox cd openbox; ./configure --prefix=/usr; make; make install [make install requires root privileges]
- ruby-gnome2 0.16.0 or cvs.
- FOR 0.16.0 ONLY: edit /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/libglade2.rb
- find (should be line 42)
- FOR 0.16.0 ONLY: edit /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/libglade2.rb
#!ruby if signal_proc
- add guard_source_from_gc(source) so that it looks like
#!ruby if signal_proc guard_source_from_gc(source)
- ruby-gettext
- obtain and install obconf
- svn co http://svn.l3ib.org/obconf/trunk obconf
- cd obconf; sudo ruby setup.rb [requires root privileges]
- enjoy life
- run obconf2
