Jevie's settings and sound

Change anything about Jevie by saying it: any setting, its sounds and the palette's layout. How it looks is Jevie's look.

How it works

Say what to change and it changes; a value that does not fit is refused with what would. Extensions bring their own settings, shown and changed the same way, and a password they ask for goes only into its form and the Keychain, never a sentence.

Notices from Jevie are not popped up in a corner nor listed in the palette: a soft sound says one arrived, and each goes by itself after a day.

Limits

Mute said alone means the Mac; say Jevie to mean Jevie.
Sounds play on the Mac and Windows.

Where it's kept

~/.jevie/settings.json, ~/.jevie/sounds.json.

In Jevie, help settings answers from this page as you type.
