NAME

pango-querymodules - Module registration utility

SYNOPSIS

pango-querymodules [OPTION...] [MODULE...]

DESCRIPTION

pango-querymodules

collects information about loadable modules for Pango and writes it to stdout.

If called without MODULE arguments, it looks for modules in the Pango module path, which is specified by the key Pango/ModulesPath in the Pango configuration database.

If called with MODULE arguments, it looks for the specified modules. The arguments may be absolute or relative paths.

At runtime, Pango looks for the loadable module information (i.e. the output of pango-querymodules) in libdir/pango/1.8.0/modules.cache.

OPTIONS

-?, --help

: Prints a short help text and exits.

--version

--system

: Do not load user-specific configuration.

--update-cache

: Update the Pango module cache file directly, instead of writing the information to stdout.

ENVIRONMENT
