17 Clawsker is an applet to edit the so called Claws Mail hidden
18 preferences.
19
20 Claws Mail is a fast, lightweight and feature-rich MUA with a high
21 number of configurable options. To keep the binary small and fast some
22 of these preferences which are not widely used are not provided with a
23 graphical interface for inspection and/or modification.
24
25 Users wanting to edit such preferences had to face raw editing of their
26 configuration files, now you can do it with a convenient GTK interface
27 using Clawsker.
28
29 In adition to hidden features Clawsker can edit also some other
30 settings which usually can only be set indirectly. These include
31 currently the saved positions (and sizes when available) of Claws Mail
32 windows.
33
35 -a | --alternate-config-dir dirname
36 Uses dirname as Claws Mail configuration directory.
37
38 -b | --verbose
39 Tells more on the standard output.
40
41 -c | --clawsrc filename
42 Uses filename as Claws Mail resource configuration file. This sets
43 the full file name overriding any previous setting.
44
45 -h | --help
46 Shows a brief help screen.
47
48 -r | --read-only
49 Edits hidden preferences without saving the changes. It also works
50 while Claws Mail is running.
51
52 -v | --version
53 Shows version information for program, Perl-GTK and Claws Mail.
54
55 Weird option specifications may produce weird results (but otherwise
56 correct).
57
59 A running Claws Mail cannot be detected if using the --clawsrc option
60 because the directory is not assumed to be a Claws Mail configuration
61 dir. If that is the case use the --alternate-config-dir option
62 instead.
63
64 Detection will also fail if the temporary directory resolution differs.
65 This may happen, for example, when the value of the environment
66 variable TMPDIR under Clawsker is not the same that it was when Claws
67 Mail was launched.
