The following are the TLP global options:
Provides a configuration file. With this option, you can point TLP to a different configuration file. The default configuration file name depends on the name of the actual script, or the symbolic link that points to this script.
Prints out a help message. Depending on the use of the --verbose option, either the syntax alone or a detailed description is printed out.
Prints verbose output. This option influences help messages, as well as the output that is created during a TLP run.
Avoids any screen output (Be quiet). This option is especially useful for automated operations, such as in the running of cron jobs.
Prints version information. This option prints the version number of TLP, the version of Perl used, along with the version numbers of all the modules used within TLP, and the Perl module that is used.
