Hi,

I'm using the Windows install of 0.73.2, and would be gratefun for 
guidance on changing the color theme. At the minimum it would be great 
to have a dark background for regular text. For the old Windows versions 
done by Brendan Kidwell I could figure out from the documentation what 
directory to put a GTK theme into and then what config file to modify to 
specify which theme to use.

For these new Windows installations, I think I've found the directory to 
add themes into (on my machine, 'C:\Program Files\Zim Desktop 
Wiki\share\themes\') but can't figure out what file will make Zim apply 
a different theme (I've been looking in 
'C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\zim\config\zim\' and the various 
subdirectories of 'C:\Program Files\Zim Desktop Wiki\share\'). I even 
tried replacing the files in ('C:\Program Files\Zim Desktop 
Wiki\share\themes\Default\gtk-3.0\') with files of the same name from 
another GTK theme, but the colors in Zim didn't change.

What should I be doing? I noticed that there was some discussion on 
Reddit about how to get a dark theme in the newer Windows installations 
of Zim but no one found an answer.

As you can can tell I'm not a software developer and don't have any deep 
knowledge of how these applications are set up. I've just used Zim to 
organize for my own work over many years and find it an amazing tool.

Thanks for any help!

Jesse
