Three steps in setting appearances

When tkDerm starts up, it loads the following settings in this order to determine the attributes of the widgets.

Default settings hardcoded in the script

The default settings are hardcoded in the script file named ''tkderm.tcl''. The settings will be loaded when you click the Default button on the Appearance dialog.

Default settings of the installation basis

The ''tkderm_rsrc'' file in the ''res'' directory in the tkDerm installation directory has default settings of the installation basis. If tkDerm finds it at the startup, it will load the settings, thus overriding the default settings hardcoded in itself.

Settings of the user basis

The settings in the Appearance dialog are saved in the ''.tkderm_rsrc'' file in your home directory. If it exists, tkDerm will read it at the startup and override the settings of the installation basis.
