-Calling transmission-remote
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B transmission-remote-cli
+is a curses interface for the daemon of the BitTorrent client Transmission.
-.Ed
-transmission-remote-cli forwards all arguments after '--' to transmission-remote. This is useful if your daemon requires authentication and/or doesn't listen on the default localhost:9091 for instructions. transmission-remote-cli reads HOST:PORT and authentication from the config file and forwards them on to transmission-remote, along with your arguments.

-Some examples:

-$ transmission-remote-cli.py -- -t 2 -i
-$ transmission-remote-cli.py -- -as

-.Ed
-Add torrents

-.Pp
-If you provide only one command line argument and it doesn't start with '-', it's treated like a torrent file/URL and submitted to the daemon via transmission-remote.
-This is useful because you can instruct Firefox to open torrent files with transmission-remote-cli.py.
