That is exactly what I wanted. Everything tested okay and I have been able to update my script.

I feel so stupid now. I have read the find man page so often I should have known that.

Many thanks,

Michael.

NAME
QMotifStyle - Motif look and feel SYNOPSIS
#include <qmotifstyle.h> Inherits QCommonStyle. Inherited by QCDEStyle, QMotifPlusStyle, and QSGIStyle. Public Members QMotifStyle ( bool useHighlightCols = FALSE ) void setUseHighlightColors ( bool arg ) bool useHighlightColors () const DESCRIPTION
The QMotifStyle class provides Motif look and feel. This class implements the Motif look and feel. It closely resembles the original Motif look as defined by the Open Group, but with some minor improvements. The Motif style is Qt's default GUI style on UNIX platforms. See also Widget Appearance and Style. MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
QMotifStyle::QMotifStyle ( bool useHighlightCols = FALSE ) Constructs a QMotifStyle. If useHighlightCols is FALSE (the default), the style will polish the application's color palette to emulate the Motif way of highlighting, which is a simple inversion between the base and the text color. void QMotifStyle::setUseHighlightColors ( bool arg ) If arg is FALSE, the style will polish the application's color palette to emulate the Motif way of highlighting, which is a simple inversion between the base and the text color. The effect will show up the next time an application palette is set via QApplication::setPalette(). The current color palette of the application remains unchanged. See also QStyle::polish(). bool QMotifStyle::useHighlightColors () const Returns TRUE if the style treats the highlight colors of the palette in a Motif-like manner, which is a simple inversion between the base and the text color; otherwise returns FALSE. The default is FALSE. SEE ALSO
