Synopsis

amule [-c <path>] [-geometry <geom>] [-o] [-r] [--configure-autostart <on|off>] [-w <path>] [-d] [-i] [-t <num>] [eD2k-link]

amule [-v]

amule [-h]

Description

[ -c <path>, --config-dir=<path> ]: Read config from <path> instead of home
[ -geometry <geom> ]: Sets the geometry of the app. <geom> uses the same format as standard X11 apps: [=][<width>{xX}<height>][{+-}<xoffset>{+-}<yoffset>]
[ -o, --log-stdout ]: Prints log messages to stdout.
[ -r, --reset-config ]: Resets config to default values.
[ --configure-autostart=<on|off> ]: Enable or disable starting aMule on user login, then exit. The OS-specific store is selected automatically: Windows registry Run key, macOS LaunchAgent, Linux XDG .desktop autostart entry.
[ -w <path>, --use-amuleweb=<path> ]: Specify location of amuleweb binary to <path>.
[ -d, --disable-fatal ]: Don't catch fatal exceptions and don't block exit on assertions. Useful for headless / supervised setups (systemd, watchdog scripts) where the otherwise-modal assertion dialog prevents auto-restart.
[ -i, --enable-stdin ]: Does not disable stdin.
[ -t, --category=<num> ]: Set category for passed eD2k links to <num>
[ -v, --version ]: Displays the current version number.
[ -h, --help ]: Prints a short usage description.
[ eD2k-link ]: Adds an eD2k-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;
a magnet link.

Notes

Paths

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