Transmission-cli Binary/Man page Name Mismatch

Description

In the latest trunk, transmission-cli is installed as a binary as transmission-cli (which is good, since it keeps the name constant with the daemon binaries), but the man page installs at transmissioncli. See cli/Makefile.am

Patch fixing this. I also added the manpage to the Xcode project, so that it's easier to access (and update ;-)).

I really disagree with the change that was made in r4405. Tiennou's patch fixed it fine. Now we have three binaries named transmission-remote, transmission-daemon, and transmission-proxy, and one named transmissioncli. This also forces an extra keypress in tab completion (instead of "trans[tab]remote" i type "trans[tab]-remote".

While I agree the man page, help message, and binary name should all match, I also believe the binary names should be consistent, and I'm reopening this.

"transmissioncli" is consistent with the command-line client's pre-0.90 name.
