I have a minor problem with xstata on Linux, which this adjustment
fixes: with .gtkrc in place xstata can't find lots of the image
files with which it "dresses" its window, and I get an odd-looking
but functional graphical stata. I can live with it (particularly
because I'm one of those weirdoes who interfaces with Stata via ESS
and Emacs) but I'd like to get it working properly. Presumably
.gtkrc is overwriting a path to Stata's *.png files -- but which
and where, and what to do about it?
