DESCRIPTION

     transmission-remote is a remote control utility for transmission(1) and transmission-daemon(1).

     By default, transmission-remote connects to the transmission session at localhost:9091.  Other sessions can be controlled by specifying a
     different host and/or port.

OPTIONS

     -a --add filenames-or-URLs
	     Add torrents to transmission.

     -b --debug
	     Enable debugging mode.

     -as --alt-speed
	     Use the alternate Limits.

     -AS --no-alt-speed
	     Don't use the alternate Limits.

     -asd --alt-speed-downlimit limit
	     Limit the alternate download speed to limit kilobytes per second.

     -asu --alt-speed-uplimit limit
	     Limit the alternate upload speed to limit kilobytes per second.

     -asc --alt-speed-scheduler
	     Use the scheduled on/off times.

     -ASC --no-alt-speed-scheduler
	     Don't use the scheduled on/off days and times.

     --alt-speed-time-begin time
	     Time to start using the alt speed limits (in hhmm).

     --alt-speed-time-end time
	     Time to stop using the alt speed limits (in hhmm).

     --alt-speed-days days
	     Set the number of days on which to enable the speed scheduler, using a list such as "2,4-6".

     --torrent-done-script filename

     --no-torrent-done-script
	     Don't run any script when a torrent finishes

     -Bn --bandwidth-normal
	     Give this torrent the bandwidth left over by high priority torrents

     -Bl --bandwidth-low
	     Give this torrent the bandwidth left over by high and normal priority torrents

     -ph --priority-high all | file-index | files
	     Try to download the specified file(s) first.  all marks all of the torrent's files as normal priority, file-index sets a single
