Themes for applications in Fvwm / Openbox / Icewm

Hi,

I've got a newbie question:
I use several window managers including Xfce IceWM Fvwm & Openbox.
But whe i'm using XFCE I can use different GTK themes so my applications like Sylpheed / Firefox etc... looked the same cool way, but not in Fvwm / Openbox / Icewm. Is there a way to use the same themes in these WM ?

Thanks,
Sader

I run the 'xfce-mcs-manager' daemon (before the WM in the .xinitrc).
Then I can choose the gtk theme with xfce-setting-shows

# pacman -S gtk-theme-switch gtk-theme-switch2

these apps are very small gtk theme switchers... and *very* useful for non-DE environments

Yes. I use those as well because then KDE doesn't get to screw with my GTK settings like it wants. (I always hated that about KDE....  :evil: )

But Phrak is right, those two little gems are great.
