+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 is also relatively easy, and you can easily pass
+the environment configuration variables from the munin configuration
+on the cli:
+$ logfile=test.log sensors="0 1 7" ./munin/usb-wde1_temperature
