Greybird VS Inconsolata

On his 3rd point of theming; Xfce should adopt Greybird Dark, which has Flatpak support. It looks nice enough. Also wouldn't hurt to drop the out-of-box, two panel "Mac" look.

Theme: Greybird (Xubuntu's default) (I've made titlebars thin with a GTK css tweak.)

I'm new to pop_os, I came over from Linux Mint. I'm quite fond of the Mint-Y theme so I went to the Mint repository and downloaded the theme package but when I move the file into my .themes folder I only get the one default Mint-Y light theme (green). I'm hoping to be able to switch to Mint-Y Dark Blue, but can't figure out how to get tweaks to recognize the different variations. I tried pulling the specific Dark Blue folder out and moving it to .themes but tweaks didn't see it either. I'd like to try the new Greybird Dark theme as well but running into the same issue as it comes packaged with Greybird Light in the same download. Any suggestions on how to make this work?

If you haven't heard of him, the joke's on you. Maybe. In any case, his work is worth looking into.

He has done interesting work in font creation, font building primitives, rasterization, 2D drawing, and resistant social network graphs (which turns out to be more or less equivalent to the Old Sk00l Google Juice system).

He was recently instrumental in performing a wonderful experiment in editor building -- wonderful because of the way it failed. It was something that one would think would work, but somehow it didn't. It's always interesting when intelligent and well-informed people are wrong about something. Perhaps there was too much Design and too little boring boiler plate.

I ran into something really similar with the "Inconsolata" font on Ubuntu recently (same issue as here, in case you'd like to read about it). What worked for me was recompiling emacs from source, and including the --with-cairo flag for the configure script:

I like Fantasque Sans Mono, and Inconsolata, and Input (not open source).

I change the mono font to Ligconsolata (Inconsolata with ligatures), and for the colors I use Tomorrow Night Eighties.

For example, installing Inconsolata-VF creates one "Inconsolata Regular (TrueType)" entry in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts. Then I can only do @font-face { font-family: "Courier New"; src: local("Inconsolata Regular"); } Anything else like "Inconsolata Medium" won't work.
