Settings are not being shared and changes are contained to +the very desktop environment they have been undertaken in\&. + +Thus, diverging settings for different desktop environments even on the same +system are very common\&. + +\fBx2goserver-xsettings\fP aims to provide generic solutions whenever possible\&. + +For this reason \fBxsettingsd\fP has been adopted as the tool of choice to +provide \fBXSETTINGS\fP support\&. It has no run time dependencies other than the +C++ run time it has been built against\&. Settings are read from a plain text +file\&. + +This package provides hooks for starting \fBxsettingsd\fP\&. +.SH "CONFIGURATION" +\fBxsettingsd\fP uses plain text files as configuration storage\&. A default +configuration handling issues with GTK-based applications is shipped as +\fI@@SYSCONFDIR@@/xsettings\&.conf\fP\&. Edit the file to suit your needs\&. + +More sophisticated configuration handling is scheduled to be implemented at a +later date and this documentation updated accordingly\&. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +\fIxsettingsd\fP(1) -- Alioth's /srv/git/_hooks_/post-receive-email on /srv/git/code.x2go.org/x2goserver.git
