Enlightenment DR17 User Guide

-

This is the Get-E.org Enlightenment DR17 User Guide. Please note that this guide only covers the E17 windowmanager and its dependencies. For information on other EFL based programs, consult the EFL user guide instead.

6.1 - Configuring via command-line

E17 does not have a graphical user interface for configuring most things. Everything can be configured via a command-line tool called enlightenment_remote though. Please keep in mind that it is not meant that users will have to use this tool in the final release version: there will be a full control panel for configuring all this. It is not meant that users will understand all this - it's simply included here as a reference. Individual examples of certain commands are included in the corresponding sections of this guide.

Here's are all the options for enlightenment_remote:
