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
       and all hot key mappings from application menus.

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.
