What is ascp?

Ascp stands for `AfterStep Control Panel’, and is a program that allows you to configure AfterStep while imitating the NEXTSTEP control panel look and feel. It makes it really easy to configure AfterStep without manually fiddling with the configuration file(s). There is more information about how to get it below. Make sure you read it carefully. Versions of ascp before version 0.9 used Tcl/Tk and TkStep, and would write .only to a steprc file. Starting with version 0.9, ascp has abandoned the Tcl-based approach. The new ascp is based entirely upon GTK+. The very latest version is dependent upon having (at least) version 1.1.1 of GTK+, and glib version 1.1.2. WARNING: AfterStep doesn’t use .steprc since version 1.
