Add a torrent or magnet link to your transmission web interface

$0 [-k file] [-s server] [-p port] [-u user -w password] [-v] [link [link [...]]]
$0 -h

Default values are:
  o file:   $_file
    Used to keep track of which links have already been uploaded to your
    transmission daemon
  o server: $_server
  o port:   $_port
  o user:   <empty>
  o passwd: <empty>

-h: print this help text
-v: be verbose (set -x)

The following syntax also works:
< torrent_list.txt | $0
EOF
