What kind of settings to you want to set exactly? Sure, you can use
GSettings to set a few things, but most of the Shell's behavior is
either configurable from the GUI (e.g. the clock), or not allowed to be
changed (animations...). There are also older settings that are stored
in GConf for now, like the keybindings.

So in short, please tell us what you want to do if you expect more
precise help.
