Gedit plugins for everyone

Mon, 23 Jun 2008 08:00:00 GMT
If you drift between distributions, one of the first things you might notice is that Gedit, GNOME's text editor, is not always the same on each system. For instance, in Debian, Gedit is a relatively simple text edit, while in Ubuntu, it sprouts features that Debian users may never have seen. The difference is the plugins that each distribution packages with Gedit and enables by default. Many of these plugins make only small alterations by themselves, but enable a dozen or more and you'll find Gedit transformed almost out of recognition, regardless of whether you are using it to write code or plain text.

NAME
gnome-settings-daemon - GNOME settings daemon SYNOPSIS
gnome-settings-daemon [OPTION...] DESCRIPTION
gnome-settings-daemon provides many session-wide services and functions that require a long-running process. Among the services implemented by gnome-settings-daemon are an XSettings manager, which provides theming, font and other settings to GTK+ applications, and a clipboard manager, which preserves clipboard contents when an application exits. Many user interface elements of gnome-shell and gnome-control-center rely on gnome-settings-daemon for their functionality. The internal architecture of gnome-settings-daemon consists of a number of plugins, which provide functionality such as printer notifications, software update monitoring, background changing, etc. For debugging purposes, these plugins can be individually disabled by changing the gsettings key org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.plugin-name.active, where plugin-name is the name of the plugin. To see a list of all plugins, use the command gsettings list-children org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins gnome-settings-daemon takes the name org.gnome.SettingsDaemon on the session bus to ensure that only one instance is running. Some plugins export objects under this name to make their functionality available to other applications. The interfaces of these objects should generally be considered private and unstable. gnome-settings-daemon is a required component of the GNOME desktop, i.e. it is listed in the RequiredComponents field of /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome.session. It is started in the initialization phase of the session, and gnome-session will restart it if it crashes. OPTIONS
-h, --help Prints a short help text and exits. --debug Enables debugging code. --timed-exit Exits after a timeout (30 seconds) for debugging. FILES
/usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome.session GNOME session definition file where gnome-settings-daemon is listed as a required component. /etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-settings-daemon.desktop Autostart file for gnome-settings-daemon, where its autostart phase is set. SEE ALSO
