Use the configuration and other resources for the merchant to
operate from FILENAME.
**-h** \| **––help**
Print short help on options.

Send logging output to *FILENAME*.
**-T** *USEC* \| **––timetravel=**\ \ *USEC*
Modify the system time by *USEC* microseconds.
*USEC* may be prefixed with ``+`` or ``-`` (e.g. ``-T +300``).
This option is intended for debugging/testing only.
