NAME
transmission-qt -- a bittorrent client SYNOPSIS
transmission-qt -h transmission-qt [options] [torrent-file ...] DESCRIPTION
transmission-qt is a fast and easy BitTorrent client. BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer file transfer protocol which uses a metainfo file (usually with the .torrent file extension) and a central tracker to distribute file data amongst a group of peers. For more information on the BitTorrent protocol see http://www.bittorrent.org/ OPTIONS
-h --help Show help options -g, --config-dir directory Where to look for configuration files. This can be used to swap between using the cli, daemon, gtk, and qt clients. See http://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/ConfigFiles for more information. -m --minimized Start minimized in notification area -p, --port port Port to use when connecting to an existing session -r, --remote host Connect to an existing session at the specified hostname -u, --username username Username to use when connecting to an existing session -v, --version Show version number and exit -w, --password password Password to use when connecting to an existing session Multiple .torrent files may be added at startup by appending them on the command line. If transmission-qt is already running, the torrents will be added to the running instance. ENVIRONMENT
TRANSMISSION_HOME Sets the default config-dir. FILES
~/.config/transmission The config-dir used when neither [TRANSMISSION_HOME] nor [-g] is specified. AUTHORS

NAME
transmission-cli -- a bittorrent client SYNOPSIS
transmission-cli -h transmission-cli [-b | -B] [-d number | -D] [-er | -ep | -et] [-f script] [-g directory] [-h] [-m | -M] [-p port] [-t] [-u number | -U] [-v] [-w directory] torrent-file DESCRIPTION
The transmission-cli program is a lightweight, command-line BitTorrent client with scripting capabilities. The options are as follows: -b --blocklist Enable peer blocklists. Transmission understands the bluetack blocklist file format. New blocklists can be added by copying them into the config-dir's "blocklists" subdirectory. -B --no-blocklist Disble blocklists. -d, --downlimit number Set the maximum download speed in KB/s -D, --no-downlimit Don't limit the download speed -er --encryption-required Encrypt all peer connections. -ep --encryption-preferred Prefer encrypted peer connections. -et --encryption-tolerated Prefer unencrypted peer connections. -f, --finish script Set a script to run when the torrent finishes -g, --config-dir directory Where to look for configuration files. This can be used to swap between using the cli, daemon, gtk, and qt clients. See http://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/ConfigFiles for more information. -h, --help Prints a short usage summary. -m, --portmap Enable portmapping via NAT-PMP or UPnP -M, --no-portmap Disable portmapping -n, --new sourcefile Create torrent from the specified file or directory -p, --port port Set the port to listen for incoming peers. (Default: 51413) -t, --tos Set the peer socket TOS for local router-based traffic shaping. -u, --uplimit number Set the maximum upload speed in KB/s -U, --no-uplimit Don't limit the upload speed -v, --verify Verify the torrent's downloaded data. -w, --download-dir directory Where to save downloaded data. SIGNALS
In addition to these options, sending transmission-cli a SIGHUP signal will contact the tracker for more peers. ENVIRONMENT
TRANSMISSION_HOME Sets the default config-dir. http_proxy libcurl uses this environment variable when performing tracker announces. FILES
~/.config/transmission Directory where transmission-cli keeps torrent information for future seeding and resume operations. AUTHORS
