A way to test several themes fast? #1

Hi, thanks for your work and your collection. A question, do you know an efficient way to test through all themes fast? At the moment my workaround is to select a theme in .Xresources, then execute xrdb .Xresource and open a new instance, to go through your collection (screenshots could be an alternative option) takes a lot of time.

Thanks Best RS

sorry for the 5 years later response: you could write a shell script that indexes each file in a directory (where you put your .Xresources file), then go through each one, start a new terminal with said colorscheme, scrots the current window, exits and repeats. that would be very heavy on resources though if you do it at a high rate.
