From fda2f546f66d0bb1b30da0ef6aae77fe82803b1c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gabriel Schneider Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2026 11:22:41 -0300 Subject: DumpConfig prints each setting as the ctl word that sets it, reads unsupported for one the frontend lacks, and includes LocationsConfig The report meant to be feedable back as configuration, but several lines were not. Shell and Font each took three to six lines of "requested", "effective" and "pending". The transition read "Panel transition PanelSlide", with no Panel word. WindowOpacity and TaglineSize carried "(pending)" and "(build-time only)". A GUI-only toggle such as Ligatures was left out on the tty, and LocationsConfig was missing altogether. Now every line up to a blank one is a word and its value: - Shell ; - Font :; - one on/off line for each Panel word; - `unsupported` for a setting this frontend does not have; - LocationsConfig as it would be typed. After the blank line comes what is in effect but set by no word, phrased so that none of it starts with a ctl word. The test checks that each line before the blank one starts with a setting word. The GUI scripts that read the font lines (font_size.py, appearance_gallery.py) now read the new ones.
