Subject description: xcalc back in Puppy with a new skin		  
Hello, all.

Here's xcalc back in Puppy with a skin slightly adapted from what someone did in the ArchLinux forums.
Shades of grey get boring, right? Smile

It's sort of an XResource file that xcalc calls. If you don't like it, copy the original skin from ~/my-applications/backup back to /etc/X11/app-defaults/XCalc. Anyway, you'll see.

Enjoy.

Here's another, wider, model for xcalc. It's made to look like the wider calculators bookkeepers and accountants use.

The attached code will simply replace the one at

/etc/X11/app-defaults/XCalc

This skin works great! Very Happy
The default, black on white, is a real eye strain.
