DESCRIPTION

       gsettings  offers  a  simple  commandline  interface to GSettings. It lets you get, set or
       monitor an individual key for changes.

       The SCHEMA and KEY arguments are required for most commands to specify the schema  ID  and
       the  name  of  the  key  to  operate on. The schema ID may optionally have a :PATH suffix.
       Specifying the path is only needed if the schema does not have a fixed path.

       When setting a key, you also need specify a VALUE. The format for the value is that  of  a
       serialized  GVariant, so e.g. a string must include explicit quotes: 'foo'. This format is
       also used when printing out values.

       Note that gsettings needs a D-Bus session bus connection to write  changes  to  the  dconf
       database.

COMMANDS

       get
          Gets the value of KEY. The value is printed out as a serialized GVariant.

       monitor
          Monitors  KEY  for  changes  and prints the changed values. If no KEY is specified, all
          keys in the schema are  monitored.  Monitoring  will  continue  until  the  process  is
          terminated.

       writable
          Finds out whether KEY is writable.

       range
          Queries the range of valid values for KEY.

       describe
          Queries the description of valid values for KEY.

       set
          Sets the value of KEY to VALUE. The value is specified as a serialized GVariant.

       reset
          Resets KEY to its default value.

       reset-recursively
          Reset all keys under the given SCHEMA.

       list-schemas
          Lists  the  installed, non-relocatable schemas. See list-relocatable-schemas if you are
          interested in relocatable schemas. If --print-paths  is  given,  the  path  where  each
          schema is mapped is also printed.

       list-relocatable-schemas
          Lists  the  installed,  relocatable  schemas. See list-schemas if you are interested in
          non-relocatable schemas.

       list-keys
          Lists the keys in SCHEMA.

       list-children
          Lists the children of SCHEMA.

       list-recursively
          Lists keys and values, recursively. If no SCHEMA is given, list keys in all schemas.

       help
          Prints help and exits.

                                                                                      GSETTINGS()
