First things first: THIS IS A BETA. It may or may not work as intended, it may contain bugs, and it may magically consume all milk in your fridge. No guarantees given at this point.

What is guiKitty?

guiKitty is a companion tool for any people interested in creating themes to be used with the ShapeShifter. Its purpose is pretty simple: it can compile and decompile guiKit files, which are the native format understood by the ShapeShifter.

When you launch the application, a splash screen will appear. From there on, you can:

- Drag the .guiKit file you want to decompile onto the splash window. guiKitty will then expand the guiKit into a bunch of files and folders located in a folder with the same name as the guiKit you have dragged on it, in the same location. You can then edit any file from the resulting decompiled folder (to, say, make some tweaks to the theme or whatnot), and then compile the folder back into a guiKit file.
- Drag the previously decompiled guiKit folder onto the splash window. guiKitty will then magically walk the structure of that folder and make a properly encoded guiKit file you can use with ShapeShifter.

guiKitty is freeware and does not require ShapeShifter or Application Enhancer to be installed.

There will be an official guiKitty page on the unsanity.com server once we reach the release state.

Conclusion

All in all, this is pretty straight-forward. Read the Read Me file for more information. Since this is a beta, please let me know if there's any bugs either in the comments or by e-mail (slava, usual e-mail sign, unsanity, dot, com). Also please do not re-distribute the file around as this is not a release version, and we don't really want this to be out in the wild at this point.
