+The redeclipse client starts a local private server upon launch which it uses 
to connect to, hence many of the server options are accepted by the redeclipse 
client as well.
+.PP
 The recommended way to change the settings of the client are to edit the 
config.cfg and init.cfg files. Examples are available in

+.SH CAVEATS:
+The local client server will by default read the config files servinit.cfg and 
servexec.cfg from the $HOME directory. To separate the client and the dedicated 
server the -h option can be used on either to specify a separate location to 
read config files from.
