  • Creating a custom config theme

    From CatX@21:1/197 to All on Sat Dec 22 18:33:24 2018
    Hi all,

    In my quest to theme everything possible I suddenly got the idea to make
    my own config theme for mystic (like those used in the system configuration editor), but I've not yet found no way to do so.. Is it even possible?
    I've not been able to find any config file to edit, nor is there any
    mention of it in the mystic documentation.

    So.. what do I need to do to make my own?

    I recall it's possible to apply an ANSI to the config theme editor but am unsure how much more you're able to do beyond that. Not much I suspect.
    g00r00 will be able to comment further..

    There is no way to theme the configuration in Mystic 1.x. I did add it into Mystic 2.x demo but we voted to not continue developing it a long time ago.

    Maybe someday I will add it in but it is unlikely for the 1.x line.

    Yep you can only change the "wallpaper" of it. The are found as "cfgroot#.ans" in the DATA directory. Maybe I can expand on it but its nothing like Mystic 2 demo where you could skin the server window, configuration, terminal, etc.
