+.SH NAME
+knetload \- a network meter for Kicker
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B knetload
+.RI "[ " generic-options " ]"
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBKNetLoad\fP is a small program for Kicker (the TDE panel). It
+shows a recent history of network usage in the form of two
+configurable diagrams in the system tray, one for incoming and one
+for outgoing data.
+These diagrams have settings for colors and various different styles.
+.PP
+Left click on a diagram to bring up a small information box which
+will show the exact input and output rates in text form as well as
+the total amount incoming and outgoing data.
+.PP
+Note that before KNetLoad can be useful you must select which
+network device it should monitor and select an appropriate scaling
+value that reflects the speed of this network device.
+.PP
+KNetLoad can monitor almost any network device; if your device is
+not in the predefined list of devices (such as eth0, ppp0 and
+ippp0) then you can type in your own device.
+.SH OPTIONS
+For a full summary of options, run \fIknetload \-\-help\fP.

+You can also enter the URL
