+## Chicago95 Plus! GUI
-By default Chicago95 Plus! creates the theme in your working folder and copies the files to their required location then automatically changes the current theme to the new theme, just like Windows!
+Designed to look very familiar you can pick and choose exactly which theme options you'd like to install. It also supports all theme previews. To use simply execute from the Plus folder `./PlusGUI.py` and you'll be presented with this:
+
+
+
+
+
+Click the file chooser and select a Microsoft Windows `.theme` (this example uses the Complete friends theme available here: https://archive.org/details/winfiles_cmfriend_202005)
+
+
+
+
+
+Clicking on the *Screen Saver* will give you a demo of the themes screensaver (assuming you have `wine` installed).
+
+
+
+
+
+Clicks on *Pointers, Sounds, etc...* gives you a new window allowing you to preview the themes cursors, sounds and icons.
+
+Cursor Preview:

+
+Sound Preview:

+Icon Preview:

+
+
+
+
+Once you've picked a theme you like press *Accept* to automatically install the theme or *OK* to automatically install the theme and exit.
+
+
+
+
+You can enable verbose output by enabling debug mode by passing the argument `--debug` to the script.
+
+You can also pass a `.theme` file to the script to generate the preview instead of having to select the file manually.
+
+Multiple other command line options exist:
