Re: Install gnome-shell extensions via CLI?

["Jasper St. Pierre" <jstpierre mecheye net>]

I don't have such a script ready, but I can tell you what to do:

    https://extensions.gnome.org/extension-info/?pk=60&shell_version=3.2

Will give you a "download_url" key back. Download that zipfile, and
unzip it into ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions

After that, you need to enable the extension. You can do this by
calling out to gnome-shell-extension-tool, or modifying the GSettings
key yourself.
