...also introduces "art" uppsrc subdirectory, which now contains BlueBar package only, but should gradually be populated with skin enhancing packages.

I like the menu, but I'm confused about the bar color. Maybe it should be "more blue".
Anyway it's not the point. I wanted to ask if it's possible to write theme capture app. For example I run the app in winxp with clearlook theme I press save as upp theme and it produces files similar to BlueBar ones. I mean this app should produce chamelon c++ files. That would be realy cool and allow easily to create theme that could be staticly linked and used in win2000 for example. It should not be too hard as at runtime you have chamelon structures (ToolBar::Style eg.) aleready filled.

I am afraid this would be difficult. Many parts of windows themes are really painted using theming API; if nothing else, we do not have our 2 hotspots to create appropriate images.

BlueBar is really nice, but I was wondering how could I implement an UninstallBlueBar method?

Well... One possibility is just to install other scheme.

But if you would want to have ability to uninstall bluebar alone, you would need to backup styles overwritten before applying bluebar, then put them back. There are catches... but should work.

While trying to implement this, I noticed a bug: if you call InstallBlueBar a second time, it will crash (writing to adress 0).
