Customization, building and installation

In winbuddy.m, toward the bottom of the document, you'll see "[NSColor blackcolor]" and "[NSColor redcolor]". Those are what you wanna change. Figure out which colors you want the inactive, and active window borders to be (predefined colors). Also you can find "border width" somewhere in that document, change that to whatever you want. In xcode choose "build for running" and then find your new bundle in ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData, and put that into your simbl folder.
