       -c <directory>
                 Lets you specify the path where valknut should  find  its  configuration  files.
                 Useful if you want to have multiple configurations, eg. for testing.

       --check-theme
                 Displays how many themes/styles are available and exits.

       --disable-backtrace
                 is  useful  when  you  have  compiled a debug version of valknut. If you want to
                 produce a core file (for a  bug  report)  you  have  to  put  this  option  when
                 launching valknut.

       --disable-splash
                 Startup splash screen is not shown.

       --disable-theme
                 Theme support is turned off.  Could be useful if buggy themes are making valknut
                 crash.

       --enable-tray
                 The system tray icon is now controlled from the options dialog, but this  option
                 will enable it, ignoring the saved setting.

       --disable-tray
                 The  system tray icon is now controlled from the options dialog, but this option
                 will disable it, ignoring the saved  setting.  Useful  if  your  window  manager
                 doesn't support tray icons.

       --help    Show the list of command line options and brief help on what they do.

       --socketlog <param>
                 Outputs  a  log  of socket data to the file dcsocket.log. Valid values for param
                 are none, send, recv or both.

       --trayicon
                 Starts the application in tray icon mode, meaning the main window  will  not  be
                 visible.
