Command Line Interface
**********************

This document is a prettier output of the documentation produced by
the command ``man`` of the different Tezos binaries. You can
obtain similar pages using shell commands such as:

::

   tezos-admin-client man -verbosity 3

The rest of this page documents the protocol-independent tools.
The protocol-dependent tools are documented :doc:`here <../active/cli-commands>`.

Node manual
===========

The command line of the Tezos node is not currently documented as a web page, but
you can obtain it in Unix manual format by running the node with no arguments::

  tezos-node

The above command briefly shows the available node commands.
Each command accepts its own set of options and arguments, see :doc:`../user/node-configuration`.
