Thank you David for your reply. 1. I tried the following and it also had no effect. kwriteconfig5 --group "Recent Files" --key MaxEntries 100
2. I note that neither 'MaxEntries' nor 'max' appears in https://github.com/KDE/okular/blob/master/shell/shell.cpp 3. I do not see any options for kreadconfig5 to dump existing groups nor existing keys. It seems to require that you know exactly what groups and keys exist in advance. Am I missing something?
