a simple thing like
DiskProbe ~/config/settings/*settings &
(opens a lot of windows)
can tell which file is touched by a specific pref panel
for the mouse panel, it told me it used app_server_settings for
focus follows mouse, which isn't hard to tell when looking at the file
which seem to have the same structure as driver setting files:
Interface {
Scrollbars {
proportional 1
arrows 2
knobtype 1
knobsize 15
}
Options {
ffm 1
decor 0
}
}
This also gives the scrollbar pref file format =)
it seems the Mouse pref panel updated the ffm setting immediately, by
asking app_server to change and writing the file on each modification,
although it only changes Mouse_settings when closed.
about the Workspaces section, it seems to me Be just use XFree modelines
for resolution setup, which at least is a "standard" format :)
It seems the window origin point is also at the end of the mouse settings file.
I'm not sure it hasn't some unknown more bytes though, didn't check.
