This document contains a summary of available user default values that
one can set to control the operation of the GNUstep libraries. To set
a default, use the defaults write (domain) (key) (value)
command in a terminal, with the NSGlobalDomain
as first
argument. E.g.,
defaults write NSGlobalDomain GSBackend libgnustep-art
To read out the value set for the default, use defaults read
(domain) [(key)]
. If you do not specify the key, every
key-value pair in the domain will be printed.
Other domains besides the system level domain
"NSGlobalDomain
" include the application domains, named
for each application that has registered defaults, and the temporary
runtime "NSArgumentDomain
" for command line arguments.
At runtime there is also a "NSRegistrationDomain
", a
second-chance domain in which "defaults for defaults" can be
registered, and possibly also domains for specific locales.
Below is a list of defaults used to control the gnustep-gui library.
You can set them either in NSGlobalDomain
, to be used
everywhere, or in individual application domains, to be used for those
apps only.
A string containing the name of the backend bundle to use for display specific GUI handling. The default is "libgnustep-back". Custom backends can be created during compilation of the libraries. Any other choice for a name is thus system specific.
A boolean value, NO
by default. When the feature is on,
NSBrowserCell draws non-leaf cells in bold system font.
For example, when the feature is on, in a SavePanel (or OpenPanel),
directory entries are drawn in bold, while simple files are drawn in
non bold.
The key used to abort the insertion of multi-stroke keybinding.
Default is Control-g
.
An array listing the names of bundles that will be automatically loaded into every application at startup. Typically these will be 'theme' bundles that control the look of the application.
The key used to quote the next keystroke (so that it is not
interpreted as a keybinding, but just inserted into the text as
it is). Default is Control-q
.
A boolean, by default NO. If you set it to YES, files that begin with a dot ('.') are not shown in the NSSavePanel or NSOpenPanel.
