SYNOPSIS
transmission-gtk -?
transmission-gtk [-pqm] [torrent-file ...]
DESCRIPTION
transmission-gtk 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

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.
Multiple .torrent files may be added at startup by appending them on the command line. If transmission-gtk is already running, the torrents
will be added to the running instance.
