IMPORTANT CHANGE TO THEMES! This is the new standard theme, based on the excellent work by Urs Hunkler (and I believe David Scotson had an influence) who has started rationalising the old mess. I've made this a very neutral, almost white theme. [ Come to think of it maybe I've been looking at iPods and Mac Minis a bit too much recently. ;-) ] The idea is that the standard styles will be included by all other themes (including custom themes) before local overriding styles are applied. This means that upgrades will cause less problems for custom themes. It's a bit like the language packs, where "en" is always referenced when a local language string isn't found. PROGRAMMERS: All new styles MUST go into this "standard" theme, and the default colours should match the plain white look. Once this theme settles down a bit we need to upgrade all the other packaged themes accordingly.

<h3>STANDARD THEME</h3>
<hr />
<p>Moodle's default theme is a very neutral grey/white theme.</p>
<p>This theme is always the most up-to date.</p>
<p>Programmers working on Moodle should always design for this
theme, and add new styles to this theme.</p>
There is a new configuration variable called $THEME->standardsheets that a theme can use to control how much of the standard theme is included before the actual current theme sheets. When true, use all subsheets from "standard" When not existent, use all subsheets from "standard" (this is to help old themes work better out of the box) When false, don't use standard at all When an array of filenames, only use those (in that order).

<p>By default, these styles are automatically loaded before any other
themes, so that all custom themes need to do is to define their
own styles to augment or overwrite particular standard styles.</p>

<p>In this way custom themes are not "left behind" by Moodle upgrades.</p>
