gsettings offers a simple commandline interface to GSettings. It lets
you get, set or monitor an individual key for changes.
The schema and key arguments are required to specify the schema id and
the name of the key to operate on.
When setting a key, you also need specify a value The format for the
value is that of a serialized GVariant, so e.g. a string must include
explicit quotes: "'foo'". This format is also used when printing out
values.
