Oh, wait: you mean ~/.gtkrc-2.0. You can simply create it. A couple of other lines you can put in there, though I haven't found out yet what they all mean: gtk-can-change-accels = 1 gtk-font-name = "Liberation Sans 11" gtk-theme-name="Simple-Green" gtk-icon-theme-name="hicolor" gtk-font-name="Sans 17" gtk-cursor-theme-size=0 gtk-toolbar-style=GTK_TOOLBAR_BOTH gtk-toolbar-icon-size=GTK_ICON_SIZE_LARGE_TOOLBAR gtk-button-images=1 gtk-menu-images=1 gtk-enable-event-sounds=1 gtk-enable-input-feedback-sounds=1 gtk-xft-antialias=1 gtk-xft-hinting=1 gtk-xft-hintstyle="hintslight" gtk-xft-rgba="rgb"
