GSETTINGS-SCHEMA-C(1)

NAME
gsettings-schema-convert - MateConf to GSettings schema conversion

SYNOPSIS

gsettings-schema-convert [option...] {file}

DESCRIPTION

gsettings-schema-convert converts between MateConf and GSettings schema file formats. Note that the conversion is not expected to be fully automated. You are expected to verify and edit the result of the conversion.

Note that GSettings schemas need to be converted into binary form with glib-compile-schemas before they can be used by applications.

  Options

-h, --help
    Print help and exit

-o OUTPUT, --output=OUTPUT
    Store the generated output in the file OUTPUT. If no output file is specified, the generated output is written to stdout.

-f, --force
    Overwrite the output file if it already exists.

-g, --mateconf
    The input file is a MateConf schema.

-s, --simple
    Produce a GSettings schema in simple format. The simple format is easier to edit and can be converted into the XML format with gsettings-schema-convert later on.

-x, --xml
    Produce a GSettings schema in XML format. If the output format is not explicitly specified, this is the default.

-i ID, --schema-id=ID
    Use ID as the schema id in the generated GSettings schema.

-d DOMAIN, --gettext-domain=DOMAIN
    Use DOMAIN as the gettext domain in the generated GSettings schema.

-u, --keep-underscores
    Keep underscores in key names instead of replacing them with dashes. GSettings keys should not contain any underscore.
