DESCRIPTION
Each preference in the GConf repository is expressed as a key-value
pair. A GConf preference key is an element in the GConf repository that
corresponds to an application prefer-ence. Preference keys typically
have simple values such as strings, integers, or lists of strings and
integers. The default key-value pairs are installed on the system, and
are known as schemas. gconftool-2 is the command-line interface tool
that enables you to set the values of keys, display the values of keys,
and install schemas from schema definition files when you install an
application. The GConf preference keys are stored and managed by the
GConf daemon (gconfd-2). These keys are cached in memory, and saved to
disk in XML format when appropriate.
