This is the general readme for all applets that uses GAI. These options are recognized by the library: --gai-debug-on Stores debug info in /tmp/gai-debug-output. Notice that it eats some processor power. --gai-debug-off Turns off debug mode. --gai-broken-wm Lets all applets run as a normal program. --gai-working-wm Lets all applets run as dockapps/wmapplets. --gai-list-settings List current settings. --gai-help Shows this text. The --gai-debug-on option should only be used by developers that suspects that there is something wrong with the library itself. Some applets can produce alot of information in debug mode and that can cause the system to become heavy loaded.
