Adwaita Dark Green
==================

About
-----

Adwaita Dark Green is based on Adwaita but with a darker colour set (inspired by [Mediterranean Night Dark](http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/MediterraneanNight+Series?content=156782)) and dark menu bars.

I find Adwaita too bright, and the Mediterranean series didn't keep up with GTK3's progress, so I made my own version. I used Adwaita as a base as it made adapting to GTK's internal changes easier.

The Theme
---------

Adwaita Dark Green includes GTK2, GTK3 (3.16, 3.18 and 3.20+ - including the new Nautilus 3.30 and 3.32 path bars) and Metacity themes.

Chaning the theme
-----------------

If you want to change any of the colours in the theme, edit the colour variable in the first ~100 lines of the appropriate gtk.scss and run
./parse-sass.sh.

Note: GTK 3 has introduced a built-in versioning system to help themes deal with the various internal widget changes between GTK versions. This means that GTK will look for the latest versioned directory that is less than or equal to the version number. When using Adwaita Dark Green then GTK 3 ≤ 3.16 will use the gtk-3.0 directory, GTK 3.18 will use the gtk-3.18 directory and GTK 3 ≥ 3.20 will use the gtk-3.20 directory.
