DESCRIPTION

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

OPTIONS

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

LIMITATIONS

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.
