XSETTINGSD(1)               General Commands Manual              XSETTINGSD(1)

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://codeberg.org/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).

CONFIGURATION
       If a path is not specified by -c or --config, xsettingsd checks the
       following locations for a readable configuration file:

       ~/.xsettingsd

       ~/.config/xsettingsd/xsettingsd.conf (base directory overridable via
       $XDG_CONFIG_HOME)

       /etc/xsettingsd/xsettingsd.conf (base directories overridable via
       $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS)

       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 configuration file:

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