✨ NAME ✨

ObConf — the configuration utility for Openbox, bestie 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

obconf [OPTIONS] [ARCHIVE.obt]

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Okay so ObConf is the preferences manager for Openbox (version 3.0 and up, no cap). Its whole user interface is genuinely self-explanatory — like, you open it, you look at it, you get it — so this manual page is not about to walk you through the GUI. It just isn't. 🙈

💖 OPTIONS 💖

  • --archive ITHEME — makes a theme archive out of the theme directory you hand it. Yes, building archives, iconic behaviour ✨
  • --config-file IFILE — tells it exactly which configuration file to use, in case you're feeling specific 🎯
  • --install IARCHIVE.obt — installs the theme archive you give it and selects it. Two things at once, main character energy fr fr 👑
  • --tab NUMBER — opens up showing tab number NUMBER. Straight to the good part 💅
  • --version — shows you the info about the version you've currently got installed, and then it exits. Byeee 🫶
