Hello,
I was thinking of improving `modify-services' by adding the ability to
specify a service to modify based on it's name and not just it's type.
This
would allow us to modify singleton services like the ones returned by
`simple-service'. I'm not sure if that's a good idea, that's why I
prefer
to ask before starting to write a patch. Following is an example of how
it
would like when modifying `set-xorg-configuration':
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(define t430-xorg-extra-config "
Section \"InputClass\"
Identifier \"touchpad\"
Driver \"synaptics\"
Option \"HorizTwoFingerScroll\" \"on\"
EndSection")
(define t430-services
(modify-services workstation-services
('set-xorg-configuration
config => (xorg-configuration
(inherit config)
(extra-config (list t430-xorg-extra-config))))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Brice.
