--help: Prints a summary how to use the client.
--man: Prints a manual how to use the client.
--daemon: Makes slimrat work in the background, by properly forking and redirecting the output to a specified logfile. Only one file can be backgrounded at a time, to support multiple instances you'll need to specify differend state files to save the instances PID in.
--kill: Kills a single active client, by looking up the PID in a predefined state file.
--list: Uses the given file as a queue-file containing URLs.
--check: Do not download the loaded URLs, just check them.
--to: Specifies the target directory for the downloaded files.
--address: Makes the download client bind to a specific address.
--config: Load custom configuration file.
--debug: Enables maximal verbosity, which includes a lot of text on the screen and the generation of an additional dump archive.
WARNING: do not use this option by default, as it keeps a whole lot of extra information
in memory (including _all_ downloaded items).
--quiet: Makes slimrat less verbose, only displaying errors and warnings.
