currently - no.

change to sloppy focus (see enlightenment_remote)

alt+click or enable clicks always raise windows option in enlightenment_remote

eaps are compiled from src data - they no longer have anything to do with the
original source format. the image data is re-encoded into eet's image data
storage mechanisms. these are designed to be compact and fast wherever possible.

they are edje files. you compile these from source (generally .edc files) using
edje_cc. see www.get-e.org for info. www.cuddletech.com has an edje cookbook -
a bit old though. there are other places too for info on how edje works. its a
bit like flash/swf in some ways. you'll need to come to grips with edje to make
themes. once u have edje under the belt modifying an existing theme will be no
trouble. youc an decompile a theme with edje_decc (the default theme doesnt
decompile - i know. i need to fix that eventually in the decompiler). you can
see all the .edc soruces in e17's src tree - or try another theme to
decompile :)
