-d XxY give decoration/border size to accurately save position; only applicable with auto_show; on applicable with a few window managers (e.g. blackbox)
-z use a different sleep time to wait for terminal to be created (advanced; see man page)
-Z use a different sleep time for -W program to be created (advanced; see man page)
-f specify flags/options to be used when creating the term or window (e.g. -f '--title mytitle', default: none)
-a automatically detect window manager and if settings exist for it, automatically set -p, -P, and -d values as necessary; this can have affect when used with a terminal or with auto_show or auto_hide (default: false)
-m for use with multiple monitors and only with dropdowns (not for auto_show or auto_hide); convert percentages used for width or height to values relative to the size of the current monitor and force reszing of the dropdown when the monitor changes (default: false)
-W the given program is not a terminal (or lacks an -e flag) (default: assume it IS a terminal)

\fB\-Z\fR, \fB \-\-sleep-window\fR
Specify an alternate sleep time to wait for a window to be completed. This is for use with -W or for -a with tiling window managers that cannot pre-float the next instance of a window (e.g. awesome and i3 if no rule to always float a specific class). Only use this option if tdrop ends up capturing a different window as the dropdown when you press a dropdown key. You probably won't need to change this, and if you do, please report it. I hope to remove the need for sleeping entirely in the future. (default: 0.5)
.TP
\fB\-f\fR, \fB \-\-program-flags\fR
Specify flags/options that the terminal or program should be called with. For example, to set the title of the terminal, something like '-f "--title mytitle"' can be used. (default: none)
.TP
\fB\-W\fR, \fB \-\-normal-window\fR
Specifies that the program is not a terminal or does not have the '-e' flag; takes no argument. If using 'tdrop current', this option will have no effect either way. (default: false)
