💖 phosh-mobile-settings(1) — the manual page, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let me tell you about phosh-mobile-settings 🫶 it's a mobile settings application for Phosh ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

phosh-mobile-settings [OPTIONS...] [PANEL]

like. that's it. that's the whole vibe 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so phosh-mobile-settings is the settings app for the Phosh mobile shell and its related components 💅 it gives you a whole graphical interface to configure system and application settings that would otherwise have you sitting in a terminal typing commands like it's 2004 😭

no cap, it's giving "point and click instead of suffer" and honestly? we love that for us 👑

💖 OPTIONS 💖

  • -h, --help — prints help and dips out. bye 👋
  • -v, --version — shows the version info, so you know exactly what you're working with 🏷️
  • -d, --debug-info — prints debugging information, and yes this is the one you want when you're filing a bug report 🐛 screenshot it, paste it, slay
  • -l, --list — lists all the available panels and exits. a lil menu of your options, iconic 🍓
  • PANEL — the optional panel name to open. if you give one, the window opens with that panel front and center 💫 if you don't? it opens with the last opened panel, which it saved in GSettings. so it remembers. it cares. 🥹 use --list to see what panel names you even have, iykyk

🧚 CONFIGURATION 🧚

phosh-mobile-settings keeps its state and options in the mobi.phosh.MobileSettings GSettings schema — that's stuff like the last opened panel and the optional conf-tweaks 🎀

want to peek at it or override it? use gsettings(1), bestie. go look. it's right there 🌈

🌟 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES 🌟

phosh-mobile-settings honors the following environment variables, and no we are not skipping any of them:

  • MS_FORCE_OSK: assume a certain on-screen keyboard, for development. valid values are pos, squeekboard and unknown. pick your fighter 🥊
  • MS_OSK_LAYOUTS: path to the OSK layouts JSON file. this overrides the default, which is handy like when you're testing layouts or running from a build tree 🌳
  • MS_FORCE_DEVICE: assume a device name for plugin compatibility. it has to match a supported device identifier — note this one is for development 🔧
  • G_MESSAGES_DEBUG, G_DEBUG and other environment variables supported by GLib. <https://docs.gtk.org/glib/running.html> — the whole GLib fam is welcome here 🫶
  • GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR: override the search path for GSettings schemas — again, super useful when running from a build tree 🌲
  • GSETTINGS_BACKEND: the GSettings backend; use memory to avoid writing to the system configuration, which is lowkey perfect for development 🧠✨
also!! the --debug-info output includes a summary of relevant environment variables — like XDG_*, WAYLAND_*, PHOSH_DEBUG — specifically so your bug reports actually have the receipts 🧾💀
