By reading included documentation in the distribution tarball. There
are also useful comments in gnokiirc. There's also a manpage. There's

PS. There's not always someone active on #gnokii. We're mostly (except
Hugh) European, so also take it under consideration when choosing a
time to join the channel. It is wise to ask the question and leave the
active session for a couple of hours.
