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: https://github.com/derat/xsettingsd

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).

BUGS

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.

Here is a short example ˜/.xsettingsd file:

Net/ThemeName "Human"
Xft/Antialias 1
Xft/DPI 100352
Xft/HintStyle "hintfull"
Xft/Hinting 1
Xft/RGBA "none"
Xft/lcdfilter "none"

SEE ALSO
