Where are the gnome terminal profiles kept ?

[Mark Ryden]

Hello,

   I am using gnome desktop. I want to know where are the gnome
terminal profiles setting kept ?  I am
talking about setting like font sizes, Scroll back lines, colors,
titles, etc, of  the profiles which are accessible via Edit->Profiles
Preferences in the gnome-terminal.
The reason for this is that when I am installing a new Linux on a
machine, I want to be able to define these profiles immediately
by copying some configuration file (and not by opening menus one by one).
Rgs,
Mark

In a terminal:
gconftool-2 --dump /apps/gnome-terminal > somefile

then (IIRC):
gconftool-2 --load < somefile

see gconftool-2 --help-load

Maybe gconf-editor can do above as well. Hmm, seems it cannot.

It is actually:
gconftool-2 --load  somefile
