Sure I have. I've built in support for a skinning system, but I'll implement
the functionality later. You'll be able to apply a skin to the whole
application,
to individual windows and even to 1 particular control.

Example:}}}
<eucode>
constant mySkin = create(Skin, "myskin.???") -- load a skin
set(Application, "Skin", mySkin) -- apply the skin to all the windows of the app
set(myWin, "Skin", mySkin) -- apply the skin to 1 window
set(myButton, "Skin", mySkin) -- apply the skin to 1 control
</eucode>
{{{


The functionality of the skinning system is not yet written, but I've
built in support for skinning in the core libraries. I'll start writing
the skinning system when the basic necessary functionality is ready.
Skinning is low-priority for the moment.
