Redmond97-SE is a living continuation of the now unmaintained Redmond 97.

"Redmond" style themes for GTK, Xfce, Metacity, WINE.

Includes both old-school retro variants to emulate Win9x/2000/XP, plus more modern darks for the productivity-focused desktop.

AUR packaging for Arch Linux just dropped.

I'm not the actual theme maintainer but I'm sure they would be receptive of PRs.

I guess the easiest would be using Kvantum to port the existing GTK theme if anyone is up for it.

Great theme! Tho I would probably put the original on the highlight, that dark mode looks lame.

This theme is the one used in my recent unixporn screenshot.
