I am using xfstt 0.9.10-1 and the --daemon option is actually part of
/etc/init.d/xfstt script, I don't use it manually. On the attempt to issue
only one dash "-daemon" it complains of the wrong syntax.
The problem is that starting xfstt manually works fine, but starting it
from init.d does not. Neither does "xfstt --daemon". And I'm not sure
what's wrong.
