;;; dconf.el ---  Edit dconf settings in an emacs buffer
;;; Commentary:
;; I haven't completely given up on GNOME.  This is a little wrapper I've ported
;; from my vim config to modify and save the running GNOME state to files.

;; The relevant vim settings:

;; autocmd BufReadPre *.gsets silent !dconf dump /org/gnome/%:t:r/ > %
;; autocmd BufReadPost *.gsets set ft=dosini
;; autocmd BufWritePost *.gsets silent !cat % | dconf load /org/gnome/%:t:r/

;;; Code:
(defun dconf-load-current-file ()
  "Load the current file into dconf's live registry."
  (interactive)
  (shell-command
   (concat "cat " buffer-file-name
    " | dconf load /org/gnome/" (file-name-base buffer-file-name) "/")))

(if (string-match "*.gsets" buffer-file-name)
    (progn
      (add-hook) ;BufReadPre
      (conf-windows-mode) ;BufReadPost might be default
      (add-hook after-save-hook
		#'dconf-load-current-file)
      )
  )
