+Debugging & Development
+-----------------------
+The dummy data generator is a small php script that generates log lines
+as they would come from the usb-wde1 usb port:
+$ ./dummy-data-generator.php |./munin/log-single-line.sh test.log
+
+Local (non-installed) plugin setup:
+$ cd munin
+$ ln -s usb-wde1_ usb-wde1_temperature
+$ ln -s usb-wde1_ usb-wde1_humidity
+$ cd ..
+
+
+Running the munin plugin for development purposes is also relatively easy
+since you can pass the environment configuration variables
+from the munin configuration on the command line:
+$ MUNIN_LIBDIR=/usr/share/munin/ logfile=test.log sensors="0 1 7" ./munin/usb-wde1_temperature
