You can change the Java Look and Feel used by RText.
To change the Look and Feel, from the Format menu, select Look and Feel. A popup menu will appear, allowing you to select a Look and Feel from all Look and Feels supported by your JVM.
You can also configure RText to use 3rd party Look and Feels, such as JGoodies (http://www.jgoodies.com). To use a 3rd party Look and Feel:
<LookAndFeel name="<name>" class="<class>" jar="lnfs/<jar>"/>where <name> is the name of the Look and Feel as it will appear in RText's Look and Feel menu, <class> is the fully-qualified class name of the Look and Feel, and <jar> is the name of the Jar file containing the Look.
<ThirdPartyLookAndFeels> <LookAndFeel name="JGoodies Plastic" class="com.jgoodies.looks.plastic.PlasticLookAndFeel" jar="lnfs/looks-1.3.jar"/> </ThirdPartyLookAndFeels>The next time RText is started, your Look should be available from the Look and Feel menu!
