XFCONF-QUERY(1)

💖 NAME 💖

xfconf-query — the command line utility for the xfconf system, aka your new bestie for poking at config values from the terminal 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Okay so real talk, this is the commandline glow-up of xfconf — it's how you talk to your Xfce settings without ever opening a GUI. Query stuff, change stuff, monitor stuff, all from the comfort of your shell. Iconic behaviour honestly 💅

🦋 Usage 🦋

xfconf-query [OPTION...] - xfconf commandline utility

That's the whole vibe. You feed it options, it does the thing. Simple as 🎀

🌸 Help Options 🌸

• -h, --help — shows you the help options, no cap. If you're ever lost, start here bestie ✨

👑 Application Options 👑

• -V, --version — spits out version information. Not me checking if I'm running the newest one 🙈
• -c, --channel — the channel to query/modify. Your channel is your little corner of the config universe 🌈
• -p, --property — the property to query/modify. This is the exact thing you're here for 💅
• -s, --set — the new value to set for the property. Give it a value and watch it slay 🔥
• -l, --list — lists properties (or channels if -c is not specified). Two moods, one flag, lowkey genius ⭐
• -v, --verbose — verbose output. For when you want the tea, all of it 🍓
• -n, --create — creates a new property if it does not already exist. Manifesting a property into existence fr fr ✨
• -t, --type — specify the property value type. Types matter, bestie, don't skip this one 💜
• -r, --reset — resets the property. Back to default, we love a fresh start 🧚
• -R, --recursive — recursive. Use it with -r for that deep-cleanse energy, periodt 💅
• -a, --force-array — force array even if only one element. One item can still be an array, and honestly? Main character energy 👑
• -m, --monitor — monitors a channel for property changes. Sit back and watch the changes roll in like a livestream 😭

Pro tip from your girl: that's literally every option in this page, so if you were worried something got skipped — nope, we kept the whole roster. No summaries, no cuts, iykyk 💖
