In the user interface it should have been under something like
Setup/Settings, Appearance I think (I can't check as I am not home right
now and I am not a 100% sure as the frontend I use the most is not using
English but French).

(I am assuming though that the user interface was displayed in a language
you understood...)

The setting I was mentionning is in the frontend UI..

Maybe you wanted to say a command line switch?

(Though I think -p does the job nicely as this is not something most users
will ever have to do...)

Have a nice day!
