Hi @DMTarmey,

As mentioned in the error message, this isn't a valid argument for the tool, so the expected behaviour is to error.

All valid arguments are outlined on the usage section of the main project page, or by running webtorrent-cli, webtorrent-cli -h or webtorrent-cli --help.

If you have any further questions, please let me know.
