# GNOME Settings
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This folder contains my GNOME settings
|
||
|
|
split into several `*.ini` files by logical group.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Machine-specific overrides may live in `local/*.ini` and are loaded last.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All paths inside the files are absolute,
|
||
|
|
anchored at the root of `dconf`.
|
||
|
|
Therefore, they must always be loaded anchored at the root as well:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
dconf load / < <file>
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[`restore-gnome`](../../.local/bin/restore-gnome) automates this upon every login
|
||
|
|
(via the `restore-gnome.service` systemd user unit).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Process:
|
||
|
|
1. Back up the current `dconf` state into ~/.local/state/gnome-settings-backups/
|
||
|
|
2. Reset all managed sub-trees,
|
||
|
|
so that keys removed from the `*.ini` files do not linger in the live state,
|
||
|
|
and
|
||
|
|
3. Load every `*.ini` here, then every `local/*.ini`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[`verify-dconf`](../../.local/bin/verify-dconf) lists keys diverging
|
||
|
|
between the live state and the `*.ini` files,
|
||
|
|
and can be used to find live keys worth adopting.
|
||
|
|
|
||

## Color Palette
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A teal ramp from light to dark,
|
||
|
|
plus two neutral tones for the shell chrome.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Translucent colors are always alpha-variants of a stop,
|
||
|
|
used for `forge`'s tile previews and tab decorations.
