<question>
<para>How can I configure the style and fonts of <acronym>GTK</acronym>
applications within &tde; ?
</para>
</question>
<answer>
<para>
Install the <application>qt-gtk-engine</application> package, which is available as part of &tde;. This
theme engine makes <acronym>GTK</acronym> applications look like your &tde; widget style
by calling functions from &Qt; instead of drawing the styles itself. Once
the theme engine has been installed, there will be a &kcontrolcenter; module
under <menuchoice><guimenu>Appearance &amp; Themes</guimenu><guimenuitem>GTK
Styles and Fonts</guimenuitem></menuchoice>.

<question>
<para>I have been hearing about this gecko kpart or &Qt; Mozilla, how do I
get these?</para>
</question>
<answer>
<para>
Good luck! The &Qt; Mozilla code is in Mozilla cvs, and not very stable as
of yet. In order to use it, you'll have to check out Mozilla from cvs
according to these instructions:
<ulink url="http://www.mozilla.org/cvs.html">
http://www.mozilla.org/cvs.html</ulink>. Then, configure either the Mozilla
suite or the Firefox browser with the option
<command>- -enable-default-toolkit=qt</command> in addition to any other
options you would like to enable. More instructions on building Mozilla can
be found <ulink url="http://www.mozilla.org/build">here</ulink>.
