## useful commands
Rofi has a separate man page for the themes:
man rofi-theme
The preinstalled themes are located at this
location:
/usr/share/rofi/themes/
It also searched for themes in the local directory with this path:
~/.config/rofi
To change ownership of a file use the chown command:
chown NEWOWNER FILE(s)
