Hi Walt,

I like your theme, and I'd like to use it, after making two changes. Well,=
=20
actually I've made one of them: restoring the in and out chart colours and=
=20
adding a nice colour for the CPU. I'm stuck, though, in trying to remove th=
e=20
panels altogether; I think 'panel' is the right name for it - it's the=20
flickering yellow line below the CPU, disk and net charts. I find three of=
=20
them around the screen distracting (two remote boxes as well as this one).

How should I remove these sections from display? I've tried setting height=
=20
to zero and a few other things but not found the proper incantation.

Thanks for publishing your theme.

Peter.
