-====== Xfce 4.6 Release Notes ====== 
  
-===== Components ===== 
- 
-==== xfconf ==== 
-Xfconf is the new configuration system for xfce 4.6, it replaces the 'old' mcs-manager that came with previous versions of xfce. 
- 
-=== xfconfd === 
-Xfconfd is the daemon handling the storage of settings. Just like mcs, settings are stored in 'channels'. 
- 
-=== xfconf-query === 
-Xfconf-query might be one of the tools many users have been waiting on for years. Especially those hanging around in our IRC-channel. Instead of having to guide new users through several dialogs and windows, it is now possible to have every control over your xfce desktop at your finger-tips. You can change any setting stored in xfconf with xfconf-query. 
- 
-The following example allows you to set the wallpaper on your first monitor: 
- 
-  xfconf-query -c xfce4-desktop -p /backdrop/screen0/monitor0/image-path -s ~/path-to-wallpaper 
-  xfconf-query -c xfce4-desktop -p /backdrop/screen0/monitor0/image-show -s true 
-  xfconf-query -c xfce4-desktop -p /backdrop/screen0/monitor0/image-style -s 0 
- 
-=== xfsettingsd === 
-Xfsettingsd is an independent XSETTINGS daemon, it uses xfconf to read its settings from the 'xsettings' channel and then exposes these settings using the XSETTINGS protocol. 
- 
-=== libxfconf === 
-Libxfconf is a client-library which can be used by applications if they want to store their settings with xfconfd. 
- 
-=== libxfconf-gtk === 
-Libxfconf-gtk is a convenience extension to libxfconf, it allows developers to bind xfconf-properties to gobject properties directly. This way it is not required to write complicated code in settings-dialogs, it is enough to bind the widget-property to a certain xfconf-property.  
- 
-This is really useful for people using libglade for UI-development. 
- 
-==== xfce4-settings ==== 
-xfce4-settings is the front-end replacement for the mcs-manager, it comes with several different components for configuring application-independent settings inside xfconf. 
- 
-=== xfce4-mouse-settings === 
-=== xfce4-keyboard-settings === 
-=== xfce4-appearance-settings === 
-=== xfce4-accessibility-settings === 
-=== xfce4-display-settings === 
- 
-=== xfce4-settings-manager === 
-=== xfce4-settings-helper === 
-=== xfce4-settings-editor === 
- 
-==== xfdesktop ====
