;;; Commentary:

;; Implements the XSETTINGS protocol, allowing Emacs to manage the system theme,
;; fonts, icons, etc.
;;
;; This package can be configured as follows:
;;
;;   (setq exwm-xsettings-theme '("Adwaita" . "Adwaita-dark") ;; light/dark
;;         exwm-xsettings `(("Xft/HintStyle" . "hintslight")
;;                          ("Xft/RGBA" . "rgb")
;;                          ("Xft/lcdfilter" . "lcddefault")
;;                          ("Xft/Antialias" . 1)
;;                          ;; DPI is in 1024ths of an inch, so this is a DPI of
;;                          ;; 144, equivalent to ;; a scaling factor of 1.5
;;                          ;; (144 = 1.5 * 96).
;;                          ("Xft/DPI" . ,(* 144 1024))
;;                          ("Xft/Hinting" . 1)))
;;   (exwm-xsettings-mode 1)
;;
;; To modify these settings at runtime, customize them with
;; `custom-set-variables' or `setopt' (Emacs 29+).  E.g., the following will
;; immediately change the icon theme to "Papirus" at runtime, even in running
;; applications:
;;
;;   (setopt exwm-xsettings-icon-theme "Papirus")
