Engine Schema

An XML format for describing GTK+ theme engine options. It provides both the documentation of engine options for themers and structured information that can be used by applications to allow the configuration of an engine. Currently the only utility that makes use of schema files is GNOME Color Chooser. Murrine Configurator already plans to integrate it.
