💖 kitten-desktop-ui-show-settings(1) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the kitten manual — yes, the page title got chopped to kitten-deskt...show-settings(1) because terminals are dramatic like that, but it's really kitten-desktop-ui-show-settings and it's about to spill all your desktop settings' current values. no cap. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

kitten-desktop-ui-show-settings — print the current values of the desktop settings 💅

like, that's it. that's the whole job. it reads the settings and tells you what they are. iconic behaviour honestly.

🌸 USAGE 🌸

kitten desktop-ui show-settings

run it exactly like that, no extra nonsense, and it'll show you the vibes currently stored in your desktop settings. 🦋

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• --as-json [=no] — show the settings as JSON for machine consumption 🤖 like, when you want your scripts to eat the output instead of your eyeballs. pass it and it's JSON, don't and it's the normal human-readable situation.
• --in-namespace — show only settings in the specified names. can be specified multiple times (stack 'em, bestie, one per namespace 💅). when unspecified, all namespaces are returned — the whole buffet.
• --allow-other-backends [=no] — normally, after printing the settings, if the settings did not come from the desktop-ui kitten, the command prints an error and exits 😭. this option prevents that. so if you're mixing backends and you don't want the whole thing to throw a tantrum at the end, this is your girl.
• --help, -h [=no] — show help for this command 🎀 the classic. when in doubt, ask for help, that's literally what it's for.

⭐ tiny note bestie: several of these take the [=no] form, so you can toggle them like --as-json=no if you want the flag to be all "actually, never mind." fr fr.
