COMMANDS
       All commands are	case insensitive.

   Add <eD2k-link> | <magnet-link>
       Adds an eD2k-link or a magnet-link to the core.

       The eD2k	link to	be added can be:

	   a  file  link (ed2k://|file|...), it will be added to the download
	    queue;

	   a server link (ed2k://|server|...),	it will	be added to the	server
	    list;

	   a serverlist link, in which	case all servers in the	list  will  be
	    added to the server	list.

       The magnet link must contain the	eD2k hash and file length.

   Cancel <hash> | <number>
       Cancels	the download specified by <hash> or <number>. To get the value
       use show.

   Connect [ kad | ed2k	| <ip|name> ]
       Connect to the network.

       This will connect to all	networks that are enabled in Preferences.

       With the	optional parameter you can specify which  network  to  connect
       to.  Giving a server address in the form	of IP:Port (where IP is	either
       a dotted	decimal	IPv4 address or	a resolvable DNS name) aMule will con-
       nect to that server only.

   Disconnect [	ed2k | kad ]
       Disconnect from all networks you	are connected to, or  just  disconnect
       from the	specified network.

   Download <number>
       Start downloading a file.

       The  <number> of	a file from the	last search has	to be given.  Example:
       `download 12' will start	to download the	file with the number 12	of the
       previous	search.

   Exit
       Disconnect from amule/amuled and	quit amulecmd.

   Get <what>
       Get and display a preference value.

       Available values	for <what>:

	      BwLimits	Get bandwidth limits.

	      IPFilter	Get IPFilter preferences.

   Help	[ <command> ]
       Prints a	short usage description.   If  called  without	parameter,  it
       shows a list of available commands.  If called with <command>, it shows
       a short description of the given	command.

   Pause <hash>	| <number>
       Pauses  the  download specified by <hash> or <number>. To get the value
       use show.

   Priority <priority> <hash> |	<number>
       Set priority of a download specified by <hash> or <number>.

       Available values	for <priority>:

	      Auto	Automatic priority.

	      High	High priority.

	      Low	Low priority.

	      Normal	Normal priority.

       A synonim of the	exit command.

   Reload <what>
       Reloads a given object.

       Available values	for <what>:

	      Shared	Reload shared files list.

	      IPFilter	Reload IP filter tables.

   Reset
       Reset the log.

   Results
       Shows you the results of	the last search.

   Resume <hash> | <number>

       use show.

   Search <type> <keyword>
       Makes  a	search for the given <keyword>.	A search type and a keyword to
       search is mandatory to do this.	Example: `search kad amule' performs a
       kad search for `amule'.

       Available search	types:

	      Global	Performs a global search.

	      Kad	Performs a search on the Kademlia network.

	      Local	Performs a local search.

   Set <what>
       Sets a given preferences	value.

       Available values	for <what>:

	      BwLimits	Set bandwidth limits.

	      IPFilter	Set IPFilter preferences.

   Show	<what>
       Shows upload/download queue, servers list or shared files list.

       Available values	for <what>:

	      DL	Show download queue.

	      Log	Show log.

	      Servers	Show servers list.

	      UL	Show upload queue.

   Shutdown
       Shutdown	the remote running core	(amule/amuled).	 This will  also  shut
       down the	text client, since it is unusable without a running core.

   Statistics [	<number> ]
       Show statistics tree.

       The  optional  <number> in the range of 0-255 can be passed as argument
       to this command,	which tells how	many entries  of  the  client  version
       subtree should be shown.	Passing	0, or omitting it means	`unlimited'.

       Example:	 `statistics  5'  will	show  only the top 5 versions for each
       client type.

   Status
       Show connection status, current up/download speeds, etc.

NOTES
   Paths
       For all options which take a <path> value, if the path contains no  di-
       rectory	part (i.e. just	a plain	filename), then	it is considered to be
       under the aMule configuration directory,	~/.aMule.

   Languages
       The <lang>  parameter  for  the	-l  option  has	 the  following	 form:
       lang[_LANG][.encoding][@modifier]  where	 lang is the primary language,
       LANG is a sublanguage/territory,	encoding is the	character set  to  use
       and modifier allows the user to select a	specific instance of localiza-
       tion data within	a single category.

       For example, the	following strings are valid:
	      de
	      de_DE
	      de_DE.iso88591
	      de_DE@euro
	      de_DE.iso88591@euro

       Though  all  the	 above	strings	are accepted as	valid language defini-
       tions, encoding and modifier are	yet unused.

       In addition to the format above,	you can	 also  specify	full  language
       names in	English	- so -l	german is also valid and is equal to -l	de_DE.

       When  no	 locale	 is defined, either on command-line or in config file,
       system default language will be used.

FILES
       ~/.aMule/remote.conf

EXAMPLE
       Typically amulecmd will be first	run as:

       amulecmd	-h hostname -p ECport -P ECpassword -w

       or

       amulecmd	--create-config-from=/home/username/.aMule/amule.conf

       These will save settings	to  $HOME/.aMule/remote.conf,  and  later  you
       only need to type:

       amulecmd

       Of course, you don't have to follow this	example.
