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
             Disable 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
             https://github.com/transmission/transmission/blob/main/docs/Configuration-
             Files.md for more information.

     -h --help
             Prints a short usage summary.

     -m --portmap
             Enable portmapping via NAT-PMP or UPnP

     -M --no-portmap
             Disable portmapping

     -p --port port
             Set the port to listen for incoming peers. (Default: 51413)

     --tos tos
             Use a ToS or DSCP name to set the peer socket service type for
             local router-based traffic shaping. Valid values are a decimal
             value 0-255, or any of these DSCP strings:

             "af11", "af12", "af13", "af21", "af22", "af23", "af31", "af32",
             "af33", "af41", "af42", "af43", "cs0", "cs1", "cs2", "cs3",
             "cs4", "cs5", "cs6", "cs7", "ef", "le" These ToS keys are
             deprecated and will be removed in the future: "default",
             "lowcost", "lowdelay," "reliability", "throughput"

     -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.

             future seeding and resume operations.
