okay bestie, pull up a chair π this is the scim-config-agent page from the scim manuals, and it's literally the little config gremlin that handles all your scim settings. she's not flashy, she's just that girl who gets the job done.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
scim-config-agent <option>...
yeah that's it, that's the whole vibe. you feed her options, she does config things. iconic π
π DESCRIPTION π
she's the configuration manager for scim, periodt. π«Ά
π The options are: π
-g,--getkey β get the value of this key. like, hand it over, what's the tea on this key? π-s,--setkey=value β set the value of this key. give her a key and a value, glued together with an=, and she'll write it in. β¨-d,--delkey β delete the key and its data from the user config file. gone. deleted. not coming back. π-t,--typetype β the key value type. the valid types are:string,int,double,bool,string-list,int-list. and the default type isstring, in case you were wondering. πΈ-c,--configname β use a specified Config module. it uses thesimplemodule by default. and here's the lil trick: use"global"instead of a real config module name if you wanna access the global configuration file. (normally those are/etc/scim/globaland~/.scim/global). iykyk π¦--reloadβ force the running scim to reload configuration. like a little refresh button but make it dramatic. π₯--displaydisplay β the display which scim Panel is running on. heads up: this is only useful when--reloadis used. don't come for her if you use it alone, she warned you. π-h,--helpβ show this help. the classic. the main character of every manpage. π
ngl, the--displayone only does anything when--reloadis in the mix β that's not me being shady, that's just what the page says. π
and that's the whole page, bestie! this one shipped as scim: 1.4.9, dated June 2010 β so yeah, she's a lil vintage but she still slays. π§ π β¨ bye bestie, go configure something cute π
