Honestly most Mint users use the graphical interface for things like that.

You may find such a thing won't probably work because there are too many infos you won't ever need and you won't be willing to spend time to read them.
If Moem's advice doesn't suit you because you want to include these commands in a script for example, perform a search on the web e.g. "linux mint change time command line" and see what's being suggested. If nothing fits, enhance the search by replacing mint with "ubuntu" if you use the standard version and with "debian" if you use LMDE.
Create a database of all the commands that match your needs (LO Writer with title hierarchy is a nice tool to do this kind of job because it's easy to build an index from it, even if a hierarchy organizer like Cherry Tree suits better for me).

I get the point. You should investigate the command gsettings first from the manual, then on the web. Can't help more because you didn't mention your DE (Cinnamon, Mate or XFCE). However, as an illustration giving some ground to my purpose :

Code: Select all

gsettings list-recursively org.cinnamon.sounds

will give you the output of the sound properties in a Cinnamon DE.
Any of these properties can be set in CLI with a "simple" gsettings set if you know what you're doing.

If you're "cinnamoned", the cinnamon-settings command as explained here by karlchen could also provide some help :
