+ | ===== Advanced configuration ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can change a lot of settings for ''EDE'' which cannot (yet) be set using a graphical configuration utility. So for now you're stuck with editing configuration files in that case. | ||
+ | |||
+ | But that should be no problem, right? At least not when you know what ''EDE'''s configuration files are and where they can be found. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Just backup your configuration and start exploring what can be done! We'll cover some common examples later. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== User dependent configuration ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | By default, ''EDE'' comes with a bundled version of ''pekwm''. Configuration files for both are separate. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Configuring EDE === | ||
+ | |||
+ | ''EDE'' places configuration files that affect the current user only in the directory **~/.config/ede**. | ||
+ | |||
+ | As of version 2.1 you can find the following files there: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * ede-desktop-icons.conf | ||
+ | * ede-keyboard.conf | ||
+ | * ede-panel.conf | ||
+ | * ede-settings.conf | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Configuring Pekwm === | ||
+ | |||
+ | ''Pekwm'''s configuration files can be found in **~/.pekwm**. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Currently there are the following files there: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * autoproperties | ||
+ | * config | ||
+ | * keys | ||
+ | * menu | ||
+ | * mouse | ||
+ | * start | ||
+ | * vars | ||
