Debugging guide request.

Debugging guide request.

1. How debug mate-panel from terminal?
   I suppose the system logs and this terminal command should be enough.
   mate-panel --replace &
   Am I right?

2. How list available applets for mate-panel ?

3. How list active applets on mate-panel ?
   I'm asking because I often have different menus available (LinuxMint-Menu / Mate-Menu).
   I don't know what advice to give the user to be sure about which menu he is using.

4. Can I run any applet from terminal?

Sometimes I try to help users.
So I created a general guide.
https://github.com/tele1/LinuxTutorial/blob/main/Menu.md
I don't like the guide, but I have no idea how to write it better at the moment or what is better than markdown.
This is my collection of knowledge. The basics that a user should know.
I wanted to include some tips about the Mate environment there as well.

The panel and thus any in-process applets within it can be run under gdb with a two-step proces:
gdb mate-panel
followed by
run --replace
as arguments are accepted by the run command

For out of process applets, I don't know any way of running applets from terminal. There is the mate-panel-test-applets program, which does execute from terminal. I think it only works with out of process applets. Out of process applets are standalone binaries that need someplace to display in (the panel or the test program) while in-process applets are shared objects.

Not sure how to list all applets in use
