DESCRIPTION

Generic usage

Every setting is accessed by a method named after it, which is a mutator. ie, it can be used both as a getter and a setter, depending on the number of arguments passed to it.

Different types of settings

Padre needs to store different settings. Those preferences are stored in different places depending on their impact. But "Padre::Config" allows to access them with a unified api (a mutator). Only their declaration differ in the module.

Here are the various types of settings that "Padre::Config" can manage:

•

User settings

Those settings are general settings that relates to user preferences. They range from general user interface look&feel (whether to show the line numbers, etc.) to editor preferences (tab width, etc.) and other personal settings.

Those settings are stored in a YAML file, and accessed with "Padre::Config::Human".

•

Host settings

Those preferences are related to the host on which Padre is run. The principal example of those settings are window appearance.

Those settings are stored in a DB file, and accessed with "Padre::Config::Host".

•

Project settings

Those preferences are related to the project of the file you are currently editing. Examples of those settings are whether to use tabs or spaces, etc.

Those settings are accessed with "Padre::Config::Project".
