Touched up some of the formatting in the panel.rc and gtkrc files. They were getting hard to read.
Added clearer steps for advanced users that might want to force 16x16 panel launcher icons on larger panels.

Chicago95

XFCE / Xubuntu Windows 95 Total Conversion

I was unhappy with the various XFCE/GTK2/GTK3 Windows 95 based themes and decided to make one that was more consistent accross the board for theming.

Included in this theme:

  • New icons to complete the icon theme started with Classic95
  • Edited Redmond XFWM theme to more accurately reflect Windows 95
  • Edited Xfce-Redmond by dbbolton to be more accurate and include XFCE panels
  • Created GTK-3.0 theme from scratch (based on Win 10 and Mate themes)
  • Plymouth theme created from scratch
  • An MS-DOS inspired theme for oh-my-zsh

Requirements

GTK+ 3.22

Xfce 4.12

(A Window compositor is preferred.) See here if you don't use a compositor.

(Preferred Linux distribution is Xubuntu 17.10) See here for the 16.04 LTS version of the theme.
