Hi all, At the Desktop Architects Meeting 3, beginning of December last year, Waldo asked me if I could write a proposal for extending the XSETTINGS registry keys.
I've written a small paper where I look at the Gtk+ and Qt settings and color palettes to find where they overlap, and where the common subsets need to be extended to be useful. The result is a proposed set of new settings keys for the XSETTINGS registry. The document is available here: http://www.pvv.org/~mariusbu/proposal.html Just a couple of points I want to clear up: * This document is intended as a basis for discussion. * The proposed keys do not cover every conceivable setting. The idea is to find a set of keys that will be useful when trying to integrate with the desktop environment. * The Qt toolkit does not have support for the XSETTINGS mechanism. I'm working on a prototype implementation for this (Disclaimer: This does not mean that Trolltech has committed to adding XSETTINGS support in Qt. It's just a prototype). * I'm not a Gtk+ expert. If you are, your input is very welcome! Cheers, Marius _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
