If you guys give me the first push in the right direction I will write
a stand-alone app based on the gnome applet. I guess it's not too
difficult since everything is there already one just needs to launch
it not by clicking on the applet but from the command line.

Any useful tips where to start? Documentation would really help here a lot....

Thanks a lot,
