NAME

xdg-settings − get various settings from the desktop environment

SYNOPSIS

xdg−settings {get | check | set} {property} [value]

xdg−settings {−−help | −−list | −−manual | −−version}

DESCRIPTION

xdg−settings gets various settings from the desktop environment. For instance, desktop environments often provide proxy configuration and default web browser settings. Using xdg−settings these parameters can be extracted for use by applications that do not use the desktop environment's libraries (which would use the settings natively).

xdg−settings is for use inside a desktop session only. It is not recommended to use xdg−settings as root.

OPTIONS

−−help

Show command synopsis.

−−list

List all properties xdg−settings knows about.

−−manual

Show this manualpage.

−−version

Show the xdg−utils version information.

EXIT CODES

An exit code of 0 indicates success while a non−zero exit code indicates failure. The following failure codes can be returned:

1

Error in command line syntax.

2

One of the files passed on the command line did not exist.

3

A required tool could not be found.

4

The action failed.

EXAMPLES

Get the desktop file name of the current default web browser

xdg−settings get default−web−browser

Check whether the default web browser is firefox.desktop, which can be false even if "get default−web−browser" says that is the current value (if only some of the underlying settings actually reflect that value)

xdg−settings check default−web−browser firefox.desktop

Set the default web browser to google−chrome.desktop

xdg−settings set default−web−browser google−chrome.desktop
