<heading>Defaults Summary</heading>

<p>
|
|
This document contains a summary of available user default
|
|
values that one can set to control the operation of the GNUstep
|
|
backend.

<heading>Backend Defaults</heading>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Below is a list of defaults used to control the x11-based
|
|
backend. These defaults generally control system specific
|
|
display and user interaction options which may not be available
|
|
on all systems.
|

<deflist>
|
|
<term>NSDefaultVisual</term>
|
|
<desc>
|
|
<p>
|
|
An integer that specifies the X-Windows visual class to use
|
|
in the application. For instance one could display the
|
|
application using the PsuedoColor visual class by setting
|
|
the value to the id of this class. The default is the
|
|
X-Windows default visual class.
|
|
</p>

|
|
<term>NSColorsPerChannel</term>
|
|
<desc>
|
|
<p>
|
|
An integer which limits the maximum number of colors to
|
|
display, per channel. For a psuedo-color display, this would
|
|
limit the total number of colors that the application could
|
|
use (normally 256). For a true-color display, this would
|
|
limit the range of red, green, and blue values that could be used.

<term>GSAppOwnsMiniwindow</term>
|
|
<desc>
|
|
<p>
|
|
GSAppOwnsMiniwindow is for miniwindows (not app icons). If
|
|
it's YES or absent, GNUstep handles miniaturization itself
|
|
and doesn't let the window manager do it. If it's NO, the
|
|
window manager is allowed to do its own iconification. This
|
|
does not affect app icons at all.

|
<term>GSFontAntiAlias</term>
|
|
<desc>
|
|
<p>
|
|
With the xlib backend, this is a boolean value which
|
|
defaults to <code>NO</code>. If set to
|
|
<code>YES</code> and X Windows system has the XFT
|
|
extension, then the application will use anti-aliased fonts
|
|
as provided by XFT..
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p> With the art backend, A boolean value which defaults to
|
|
YES. If YES, text is anti-aliased at small sizes (9-16
|
|
pixels). The value is advisory (specific fonts can override this
|
|
setting).
|
|

|
|
<term>GSFontMask</term>
|
|
<desc>
|
|
<p> [Xlib backend only]
|
|
A string value which defaults to <code>"*"</code>. It defines
|
|
the pattern used to get the installed fonts from the
|
|
X-Server. A value of <code>"*-iso8859-1"</code> would only
|
|
include fonts available with ISO Western encoding. This
|
|
feature might be helpfull if the font_cacher program is having
|
|
problem with the X-Server.
|
|

|
|
<term>GSXEnableFontSet</term>
|
|
<desc>
|
|
<p> A string value which defaults to <code>NO</code>. If set to
|
|
<code>YES</code>, then the backend font classes will support
|
|
full multi-byte/unicode characters. This is useful for using
|
|
many East Asian languages. However, the respose of the GUI is
|
|
somwhat slower when this is enabled.
|
|

|
|
<term>GSXIMInputMethodStyle</term>
|
|
<desc>
|
|
<p> A string value used to specify the XIM input method for
|
|
entering characters. Valid values are
|
|
<code>RootWindow</code>, <code>OffTheSpot</code>, or
|
|
<code>OverTheSpot</code>.

|
<term>GraphicCompositing</term>
|
|
<desc>
|
|
<p> [Xlib backend only]
|
|
A boolean value which defaults to <code>YES</code>. If set to
|
|
<code>YES</code>, then the application uses various tricks
|
|
to get alpha colors to work when compositing images. This
|
|
may slow down drawing of images, but it is generally
|
|
recommended anyway, particularly on fast systems.

<term>Keyboard Modifiers</term>
|
|
<desc>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The OPENstep specification requires 3 main different
|
|
keyboard modifiers: <code>CONTROL</code>,
|
|
<code>COMMAND</code> and <code>ALTERNATE</code>. Some systems
|
|
may not have these set up correctly. You can changed the defaults
|
|
with the default keys.

<term>UseWindowMakerIcons</term>
|
|
<desc>
|
|
<p>
|
|
UseWindowMakerIcons is for app icons, and has no effect when
|
|
the window manager isn't Window Maker. It displays the
|
|
application's icon window in the window Window Maker
|
|
provides instead of creating one controlled by the app. This
|
|
allows the icon to be docked. It is a boolean value which
|
|
defaults to <code>YES</code>.

|
|
<term>XGPS-Shm</term>
|
|
<desc>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A boolean value which defaults to <code>YES</code> (as long as shared
|
|
memory is available). If set to <code>NO</code>, shared memory is not
|
|
used for various display specific operations.

<term>GSOldClipboard</term>
|
|
<desc>
|
|
<p>[X backends only]
|
|
A boolean value which defaults to <code>NO</code>. If set to YES the
|
|
old GNUstep way of X clipboard interaction will be used. That is
|
|
PRIMARY as the general pasteboard and CLIPBOARD for the
|
|
selection. Whereas the new X standard is the other way around. This
|
|
setting may be needed for interaction in an old X enviornment.
