NAME¶
xsettingsd - provides settings to X11 applications
SYNOPSIS¶
xsettingsd [
options]
DESCRIPTION¶
xsettingsd is a daemon that implements the XSETTINGS specification. The typical
invocation is from a user's
~/.xsession file.
It is intended to be small, fast, and minimally dependent on other libraries. It
can serve as an alternative to gnome-settings-daemon for users who are not
using the GNOME desktop environment but who still run GTK+ applications and
want to configure things such as themes, font antialiasing/hinting, and UI
sound effects.
Additional documentation is available at the project's website:

OPTIONS¶
- -c, --config=FILE
- Load settings from FILE (default is ~/.xsettingsd).
- -h, --help
- Display a help message and exit.
- -s, --screen=SCREEN
- Use the X screen numbered SCREEN (default of -1 means all
screens).

EXAMPLE¶
Running
dump_xsettings(1) while another XSETTINGS daemon, such as
gnome-settings-daemon, is already running will print your current
settings in
xsettingsd's configuration file format.

Net/ThemeName "Human"
Xft/Antialias 1
Xft/DPI 100352
