Acutally the man page already describes -c as:
Send ratpoison a command. There must be a ratpoison instance running as
window manager for the given display/screen for this to work. Do not forget
to quote the command if it contains spaces.
Do you have any suggestion for a notice easier to grasp? Perhaps only
adding some example would be enough?
