NAME¶
gconf-editor - an editor for the GConf configuration system
SYNOPSIS¶
gconf-editor
DESCRIPTION¶
GConf-Editor is a tool used for editing the GConf configuration database.
It might be useful when the proper configuration utility for some software
provides no way of changing some option.
USAGE¶
The main window consists of a tree showing the GConf configuration database
hierarchy, a list of the keys available, and documentation for the selected
key.
Key values can be changed by either changing them directly in the list, or right
clicking on them and selecting
Edit key. Changes take immediate effect
in running programs. New keys can be added by right clicking in the list and
selecting
New key.
Bookmarks may be set for quick lookup of a key later.
NOTES¶
This tool allows you to directly edit your configuration database. This is not
the recommended way of setting desktop preferences. Use this tool at your own
risk.
