Command line options 

Options:
  --theme directory       Directory where I can find themed icons
  --device netdev         Device monitored
  --speed ms              Refresh time in ms
  --netsession name       Set the Name for this icon to store and load ex: modem1 or localnet

For example: 

ktraynetworker --device eth0 --speed 250 --theme /home/stefano/net_round_arrow/ --netsessione localnet

You may specify any interface and any speed with command line options, you can set the session property which will be use to enable profile load/store for example: 

ktraynetworker --device ppp0 --speed 250 --theme /home/stefano/net_be_term/ --netsessione dialup

next time ktraynetworker started with: 

ktraynetworker --netsessione dialup

will enable other options like: --device ppp0 --speed 250 --theme /home/stefano/net_be_term/
If you don't specify netsession changes will be saved under default profile.
