NAME

     transmission-gtk — a bittorrent client

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

     -? --help
             Show help options

     -p --paused
             Start with all torrents paused

     -m --minimized
             Start minimized in notification area

     -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
             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.

ENVIRONMENT

     TRANSMISSION_HOME
                 Sets the default config-dir.

     http_proxy  libcurl uses this environment variable when performing tracker announces. If
                 set, this overrides the GNOME proxy preferences.

FILES

     ~/.config/transmission
             The config-dir used when neither [TRANSMISSION_HOME] nor [-g] is specified.
