Copy-and-pasted "tweaks" to a GTK3 port of the "Mist" theme

The copy and pasted things were bits from the Albatross theme

When there's a major update I usually like to simply reinstall the OS. I'll backup my home directory and anything else relevant (perhaps just a few config files in /etc).

So I've installed, got access to the internet, and updated the official packages. Now what?

In Slackware I access slackbuilds from the command line using sbopkg
