how to get open mpt to not suck

its ugly and the keybinds suck but it sounds great and it has powerfull features heres the fix:
Im running it in wine so to fix the theme you need to change the windows desktop theme in wine cfg (Im using q4wine to manage wine) under desktop integreation set it to no theme otherwise it will fight it. (shouldn't be a problem because the wine that in apt doesn't ship with any dark theme. breeze dark theme for wine
In Open MPT, ctrl f1 (fn ctrl f1) to open settings, colour themes are under the display tab. my top 3 themes are:

• strawberry
• plumbum
• skale

Fixing the Keybinds
if you look for more keybinds there are none in the default path of home,mint,.wine,drive_c,users,mint,Application Data,OpenMPT.
You need to copy them from your wine directory into that directory so you don't need to dig through a million folders to get to it.
/home/mint/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/OpenMPT/ExtraKeymaps/
another location it could be is:
/home/mint/.wine/drive_c/users/mint/Local Settings/Application Data/Programs/OpenMPT/ExtraKeymaps/
delete all the other languages besides US (you'd think uk is english but its a real headache when you need to type specials symbols and there not where you expect). maybe the ft2 one might be usefull? I just went with it2 (lpchip) version it just makes the most sense to me coming from schismtracker.
