transmission-remote-cli is a curses interface for the daemon of the BitTorrent client Transmission.

--version

Show version number and exit

-h --help

Show usage information and a list of options

-c CONNECTION --connect=CONNECTION

Point to the server. CONNECTION must match the following pattern:

[username:password@]host[:port][path]

Default: localhost:9091

-s --ssl

Use SSL to connect to the server.

Default: don't use SSL

--create-config

Create configuration file with default values.

NOTE: A config file won't be created unless you provide this option at least once. After that, it is rewritten whenever transmission-remote-cli exits.

-f CONFIGFILE --config=CONFIGFILE

Set path to configuration file.

Default: ~/.config/transmission-remote-cli/settings.cfg

-n --netrc

Get authentication info from ~/.netrc.

-- OPTIONS

Use the known server connection to pass OPTIONS on to transmission-remote.

transmission-remote-cli overwrites the configuration file on exit. Keep that in mind if you edit it manually.
