NAME

       rnetclient - Submit the Brazilian Income Tax Report to the Brazilian Tax Authority

SYNOPSIS

       rnetclient [-d|--declaration] <FILE> [-o <DIRECTORY>|--output-dir=<DIRECTORY>]

DESCRIPTION

       rnetclient  is used to send Brazilian tax income reports to Receita Federal, Braziliam Tax
       Authority.  It communicates with the official  server  from  Receita  Federal,  ensures  a
       secure  connection  is  established,  and submits the file.  It is the product of reverse-
       engineering ReceitaNet, which is the proprietary, non-free version of  the  software  that
       does the same thing as rnetclient.

OPTIONS

       -d <FILE>, --declaration=<FILE>
              Provide  the  declaration  (report)  filename  to be sent to Receita Federal.  This
              argument is mandatory.  For historical reasons,  the  user  can  also  provide  the
              declaration filename without specifying the -d modifier.

       -o <DIRECTORY>, --output-dir=<DIRECTORY>
              Specify  the  output  directory  where the receipt will be saved.  This argument is
              optional; if no output directory is specified, then the receipt will  be  saved  in
              the current working directory (CWD).

       -V, --version
              Print the program version and exit.

HISTORY AND MOTIVATION

       There  is no way to talk about rnetclient without mentioning IRPF-Livre, which is an older
       project started and maintained by Alexandre Oliva.  This project  exists  because  Receita
       Federal,  the  Brazilian  Tax Authority, does not release the source code for the software
       used to fill the Brazilian Tax Income Report.  Alexandre  still  fights  to  make  Receita
       Federal  release this program as Free Software, but he also decided to produce and release
       a Free version of the program.  However, there was still another  closed  source  software
       needed  to fully be able to do your duties with the Brazilian government: the program used
       to submit the report to Receita Federal.  That is how rnetclient was born.

       The program began as a personal project from Thadeu Lima de Souza  Cascardo.   He  had  to
       reverse  engineer  the  proprietary  software in order to replicate the functionality, and
       made the first release on 2013.  In 2014, Alexandre Oliva and Sergio Durigan Junior joined
       efforts and helped in the release of the second version.
