An app that is written in Qt does not automatically have a particular
visual theme. Instead, Qt inherits the theme of whatever platform it's
compiled on. When I compile my Qt code on Ubuntu, it always looks like a
native GTK+ based app. I've not done it yet on Windows or Mac OS, but if I

This sounds like it would be really useful if simply clicking on an app in

t its that Qt and Gtk+ are the two most
commonly used toolkits, so asking for a version in either would be good I
think. Considering LibreOffice it would even improve boot up time to use a

Awesome idea, strange I didn't came up with it. Might be because I'm not

Anyhow, for implementing this idea on the BRB should be possible with even
a "simple" bash script. For editing current .desktops will be a bit
trickier, but is also doable in my opinion.
