SMD -c "path/to/config" mode arguments

Examples:

SMD -c "~/Downloader/config.json" down link_to_manga -l
SMD -c "~/Downloader/config.json" update

Download mode

This mode will download the manga from the link based on your selection, accepts multiple links.

Download all of the chapters:

SMD down link_to_manga [more_links]

Download a range of chapters (both ends are inclusive):

SMD down link_to_manga [more_links] -r 1 20
SMD down link_to_manga [more_links] --range 1 20

Download specific chapters (works if numbers are not in order):

SMD down link_to_manga [more_links] -s 1 10 5 15
SMD down link_to_manga [more_links] --selection 1 10 5 15

Download the newest chapter (based on chapter number not time of upload):

SMD down link_to_manga [more_links] -l
SMD down link_to_manga [more_links] --latest

Exclude chapters from download (works together with -r and -s):

SMD down link_to_manga [more_links] -e 5 10 1
SMD down link_to_manga [more_links] --exclude 5 10 1

Download into a different directory:

SMD down link_to_manga -d "some/path"

Download using a custom name:

SMD down link_to_manga -n Some new name
SMD down link_to_manga --name Some new name

Warning: Using a custom name when downloading multiple manga at once will cause overwriting of the files since all of them will be assigned the same name

This mode allows the modification of the config file.
