NAME

       cas - c aMule statistics

SYNOPSIS

       cas [-o] [-p] [-c <path>]

       cas [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       cas  is	a program for displaying the contents of your aMule online signature file to console (in a human readable form). For this to work,
       you must enable the "Online Signature" option in aMule's preferences.

       [ -o, --picture, -P ]
	      Writes the online signature picture.  You can optionally append =<PATH> to this option, to specify the location it should be written
	      to.

       [ -p, --html, -H ]
	      HTML  page  with	stats and picture.  You can optionally append =<PATH> to this option, to specify the location it should be written
	      to.

       [ -c <path>, --config-dir=<path> ]
	      Read config from <path> instead of home

       [ -h, --help ]
	      Prints a short usage description.

       Without any options, it prints online signature data to stdout.
