+<p>The <link xref="tech-gsettings">GSettings</link> GIO API can be used to read and write application 
settings. This can store a wide variety of data, such as integers and arrays of strings. GSettings 
transparently uses the GNOME settings database. User interface controls can be bound to settings with a 
single function, so that they automatically update.</p>
