is there anywhere that i can learn to code the step.rc file? i have no real idea what i am doing... the most i have done to customize litestep is to change some theme settings...

this is my step.rc
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; define critical folder locations
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PersonalDir "$LiteStepDir$personal\"
ThemesDir "$LiteStepDir$themes\"



;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; load personal settings and theme
;------------------------------------------------------------------------------

include "$ThemesDir$themeselect.rc"
include "$ThemeDir$config\_compatibility_patch.rc"

IF ThemeIsOTS1Compliant
ShortcutsDir "$Desktop$"
ModulesDir "$ThemeDir$modules\"
include "$PersonalDir$personal.rc"
include "$ThemeDir$step.rc"

ELSE
ThemeIsOTS1Compliant false
ModulesDir "$LiteStepDir$modules\"
LoadModule "$LiteStepDir$NLM\NetLoadModule2.dll"
*NetLoadModuleSite "http://www.loose-screws.com/download.php?netloadmodule="
*NetLoadModuleSite "http://modules.shellfront.org/"
NetLoadModulePath "$ModulesDir$"
NetLoadModuleDocPath "$ModulesDir$docs\"
NetLoadModuleZipPath "$ModulesDir$archive\"
NetLoadModuleAliasFile "$LiteStepDir$NLM\NetLoadModule.ini"
include "$PersonalDir$personal.rc"
include "$ThemeDir$theme.rc"
ENDIF


if i put this file in the raw ls build, it says

Variable "ThemeDir" not defined.
Expression: $ThemeDir$config\_compatibility_patch.rc

Variable "ThemeDir" not defined.
Expression: $ThemeDir$theme.rc

since i already have ls open, i didn't load it further, though i am sure i would get more errors relating to modules. any help would be appreciated, including people who actually want to make some of the files, like a vbs, bat, or exe file that terminates explorer and starts ls.
