Theres a program included in Cooker called gtk-theme-switch ( command :
'switch' ) which could enable switching themes for GTK1.2 apps . 
However, it doesn't produce valid gtkrc files when using custom fonts (
omits the fontset tag ) and conflicts with the built-in shell command
'switch' so you have to specify the full path on the command line or
just use the menu.
