DESCRIPTION
       Clawsker	is an applet to	edit the so called Claws Mail hidden
       preferences.

       Claws Mail is a fast, lightweight and feature-rich MUA with a high
       number of configurable options. To keep the binary small	and fast some
       of these	preferences which are not widely used are not provided with a
       graphical interface for inspection and/or modification.

       Users wanting to	edit such preferences had to face raw editing of their
       configuration files, now	you can	do it with a convenient	GTK interface
       using Clawsker.

       In adition to hidden features Clawsker can edit also some other
       settings	which usually can only be set indirectly. These	include
       currently the saved positions (and sizes	when available)	of Claws Mail
       windows,	all hot	key mappings from application menus, and history files
       for editable autosaving drop-down lists.

OPTIONS
       -a | --alternate-config-dir dirname
	   Uses	dirname	as Claws Mail configuration directory.

       -b | --verbose
	   Tells more on the standard output.

       -c | --clawsrc filename
	   Uses	 filename as Claws Mail	resource configuration file. This sets
	   the full file name overriding any previous setting.

       -h | --help
	   Shows a brief help screen.

       -i | --ignore-versions
	   Ignores any version detected	 or  set  by  -u  option.  Almost  all
	   options will	be available.

       -k | --hide-disabled-keys
	   On hotkeys columns sets foreground colour of	unassigned keys	to the
	   same	 colour	 used  as  background,	rendering them invisible until
	   selected. This may help locating assigned keys on very long lists.

       -r | --read-only
	   Edits hidden	preferences without saving the changes.	It also	 works
	   while Claws Mail is running.

       -s | --small-screen
	   Resolution  of  display  is	autodetected  to adjust	UI for screens
	   where default rendering would exceed	available space.  This	option
	   forces  those  small	 screen	 adjustments.  This  can be useful for
	   screens where the UI	fits  resolution,  but	the  screen  state  is
	   already used	by other programs.

       -u | --use-claws-version	version
	   Uses	 version  as  Claws  Mail version instead of the real one. The
	   version argument is a  list	of  integers,  separated  by  dots  if
	   needed.

       -v | --version
	   Shows version information for program, Perl-GTK and Claws Mail.

       Weird  option  specifications  may produce weird	results	(but otherwise
       correct).

LIMITATIONS
       A running Claws Mail cannot be detected when using the --clawsrc	option
       because the directory containing	the given file is not expected to be a
       full Claws Mail configuration folder. If	 that  is  the	case  use  the
       --alternate-config-dir option instead.

       Detection will also fail	if the temporary directory resolution differs.
       This  may  happen,  for	example,  when	the  value  of the environment
       variable	TMPDIR,	under Clawsker is not the same that it was when	 Claws
       Mail  was  launched.  For  Claws	 Mail  versions	 greater  than	3.17.8
       different values	for XDG_RUNTIME_DIR or XDG_CACHE_HOME may  also	 cause
       this.

BUGS
       You can send bug	reports	using the Claws	Mail bugzilla instance located
       at  <http://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/claws-mail/bugzilla/>. When creating
       the bug please select the "clawsker" product.

       Security	bugs can be reported also in bugzilla or to  the  main	author
