They go after the 'run'. AppRun shows how to add parameters. However, you
don't want to run it that way through ROX-Session because then you won't
have a terminal window open to issue debugger commands to ;-)

Instead, ensure you have coredumps enabled (bash):

$ ulimit -a
core file size        (blocks, -c) 20000

If not, make sure they are enabled *before* ROX-Filer is started. You can
do this by editing RunROX, or by changing /etc/security/limits.conf to
contain:

	#<domain>      <type>  <item>         <value>
	*              soft    core          20000

When it crashes you should get a 'core' file. Examine it with:

$ rox --debug ~/core
