-To install this file type: 
-      mateconftool - -install-schema-file mate-search-tool.schemas 
-You probably want your "make install" to do this for real applications.
-Also, you probably want a configure option so people can retarget where the 
-schema file gets installed. The option should be called - -mateconf-config-source=blah
-To change the mateconftool target use the - -config-source=blah option to mateconftool.
