I learned that the gsettings range
shows all possible options for a the setting but when I do
gsettings range org.gnome.gedit.preferences.editor scheme
It does not show me options for schemes presented by GUI settings like
'Classic'
'Cobalt'
'Kate'
'Oblivion'
'Solarized Dark'
'Solarized Light'
'Tango'
Rather it shows me this
type s
Why? And how to see these options in terminal?
range
is only valid for enumerated (enum
) types; in this case it's telling you thatscheme
takes a freeform string (type s
) i.e. the schema itself doesn't contain a list of possible values. I don't know how the GUI preferences dialog gets them from.
