Adding or changing system settings

System settings modify the system behavior. The settings identify default values for various user settings and enable or disable certain functions. All settings have a default value. If the setting is not defined in the database, the default value is used. Use the database to manage modifications to the default value. For a list of all possible settings, see Understanding-system-preferences.
