At the moment there is only one gtkrc-based theme of this sort
available,
though creating new ones using it as a template should be a very

I will attach the gtkrc file for the "high contrast large font" theme.

# High-Contrast, Large Print Theme v0.1
# This is the whole basic theme, just this one gtkrc file.
# It uses components of the standard theme engine
# Written by Bill Haneman, based on Standard theme by T. Liebeck, 
# which was in turn based on lots of different gtkrc files but
# primarily the one for the metal theme.
