  USAGE: xrsbd [<mod_list>='cpu mem bl vol-amixer bat dt']
               [<pre>=' '] [<sep_l>='| '] [<sep_r>=' '] [<suf>=' ']

          mod_list
                 A comma or space separated list of modules that define both
                 the order and the content of the status bar.

          pre    The prefix prepended to the beginning of the status bar.

          sep_l  The left separator between status bar sections.

          sep_r  The right separator between status bar sections.

          suf    The suffix appended to the end of the status bar.

  EXAMPLES:

          Any of these will display this help message.

                 xrsbd -h
                 xrsbd -help
                 xrsbd --help

          Run the daemon in the background to create a status bar with the
          default sections, prefix, separators, and suffix.

                  xrsbd &

          Run the daemon in the background to create a status with only the
          volume and date/time sections, with the entire status between square
          brackets, and each section surrounded by angle brackets. Note that
          the first left separator and the last right separator are stripped
          from the output, so if you want them, simply include them in the
          prefix and suffix as shown here.
