 +===== Usage =====
 +
 +To get started here are a few examples of the mighty tool "''**xfconf-query**''."
 +
 +List the channels:
 +
 +  xfconf-query -l
 +
 +List all of the properties and values of a channel:
 +
 +  xfconf-query -c <CHANNEL> -lv
 +
 +Create a new property:
 +
 +  xfconf-query -c <CHANNEL> -p <PROPERTY> -n -t <TYPE> -s <VALUE>
 +
 +Change an existing property (same as previous but without the -n):
 +
 +  xfconf-query -c <CHANNEL> -p <PROPERTY> -s <VALUE>
 +
 +As Xfconf won't list any unset properties on a channel, it is needed to grep the source. This means downloading a project -- cf. http://git.xfce.org/ --, and use commands like "''grep xfconf_channel_set *.c''."
