I searched google but couldn't find any documentation for the GTK pixmap
theme engine. I did find documentation about the xenophilia engine but
that doesn't seem to be able to do what I want. Where can find
information about the 1.x version of this engine? (And the 2.x version
too as I'll probably switch over sometime in the future).

I did find some references to a GdkPixbuf version of the pixmap engine
(I'm using GTK 1.x). Where can I find that?


Also, making that GtkViewport inside the GtkScrolledWindow share the
background with the rest of the window. Is it possible with any of these
theme-engines or plain gtk?
