Pasteld CLI Implementation
Usage:
pasteld [options] Start Pastel Daemon
Options:
-?
This help message

-alertnotify=<cmd>
Execute command when a relevant alert is received or we see a really
long fork (%s in cmd is replaced by message)
-blocknotify=<cmd>
Execute command when the best block changes (%s in cmd is replaced by
block hash)

-checklevel=<n>
How thorough the block verification of -checkblocks is (0-4, default: 3)
-conf=<file>
Specify configuration file (default: pastel.conf)
-daemon
Run in the background as a daemon and accept commands
-datadir=<dir>
Specify data directory

for block files)

call (default: 0)

Bind to given address and whitelist peers connecting to it. Use
[host]:port notation for IPv6
-whitelist=<netmask>
Whitelist peers connecting from the given netmask or IP address. Can be
specified multiple times. Whitelisted peers cannot be DoS banned and
their transactions are always relayed, even if they are already in the
mempool, useful e.g. for a gateway
