.TH XSETTINGSD 1
.SH NAME
xsettingsd \- provides settings to X11 applications
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B xsettingsd
.RI [ options ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
xsettingsd is a daemon that implements the XSETTINGS specification.  The
typical invocation is from a user's \fB~/.xsession\fR file.
.PP
It is intended to be small, fast, and minimally dependent on other
libraries. It can serve as an alternative to gnome-settings-daemon for
users who are not using the GNOME desktop environment but who still run
GTK+ applications and want to configure things such as themes, font
antialiasing/hinting, and UI sound effects.
