Make your eclipse look better on ubuntu

When using eclipse on ubuntu, extra space between items and fonts size make it look awkward. I try to adjust fonts by go to [Window->Preferences->General->Appearance->Colors and Fonts]. This will not much help, reduce fonts size does not change space between item. Here is Eclipse Europa before tweak.
Anyway, at last I found the way to make eclipse look more compact from googling. Thank forWesley and Vladimir Buell for this trick. Create ".gtkrc-2.0" in your home directory enable you to customize gtk object style[more about gtkrc-2.0]. Here is my ".gtkrc-2.0".

pnix@pnix-a7n:~$ cat .gtkrc-2.0
style "gtkcompact" {
font_name="Sans 8"
GtkButton::default_border={0,0,0,0}
GtkButton::default_outside_border={0,0,0,0}
GtkButtonBox::child_min_width=0
GtkButtonBox::child_min_heigth=0
GtkButtonBox::child_internal_pad_x=0
GtkButtonBox::child_internal_pad_y=0
GtkMenu::vertical-padding=1
GtkMenuBar::internal_padding=0
GtkMenuItem::horizontal_padding=4
GtkToolbar::internal-padding=0
GtkToolbar::space-size=0
GtkOptionMenu::indicator_size=0
GtkOptionMenu::indicator_spacing=0
GtkPaned::handle_size=4
GtkRange::trough_border=0
GtkRange::stepper_spacing=0
GtkScale::value_spacing=0
GtkScrolledWindow::scrollbar_spacing=0
GtkExpander::expander_size=10
GtkExpander::expander_spacing=0
GtkTreeView::vertical-separator=0
GtkTreeView::horizontal-separator=0
GtkTreeView::expander-size=8
GtkTreeView::fixed-height-mode=TRUE
GtkWidget::focus_padding=0
}
class "GtkWidget" style "gtkcompact"

style "gtkcompactextra" {
xthickness=0
ythickness=0
}
class "GtkButton" style "gtkcompactextra"
class "GtkToolbar" style "gtkcompactextra"
class "GtkPaned" style "gtkcompactextra"
pnix@pnix-a7n:~$ 

and here is the result. No more extra space, I also change fonts for text editor and Dialog to "DejaVu San size 8".
