Pastel-CLI

Pastel-cli provides a command line wrapper for communicating locally with pasteld, and through pasteld, with the blockchain.  
Executing pastel-cli will yield an error if the local pasteld daemon cannot be contacted (for instance, because it is not running).
Usage:
  pastel-cli [options] <command> [params]  Send command to Pastel
  pastel-cli [options] help                List commands
  pastel-cli [options] help <command>      Get help for a command
​
