      Description

      Launching Jalview 2.11.0 in Kubuntu linux gives the default Swing Metal look and feel.
      This could be changed to GTK look and feel which (even in KDE) looks and feels more native.
      See https://askubuntu.com/questions/21886/how-can-i-get-a-java-apps-to-use-the-gtk-theme
      and https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/lookandfeel/plaf.html
