     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

	     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

     -p, --port port
