```console

$ tunblkctl ls

cloudvpn		workvpn

$ tunblkctl connect --wait cloudvpn

$ tunblkctl status

VPN        IN     OUT      AUTO

cloudvpn   4.91M  888.84K  -

workvpn    6.35K  4.76K    -

$ tunblkctl disconnect

```

Find more commands and options in the [full manual][man].

## Installing

The easiest way to install the tool is using [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/):

`$ brew install --HEAD azhuchkov/tools/tunblkctl`

## FAQ

**Q: I installed the software using the recommended method, but tab-completion doesn't work. Why?**  

A: Try using a new shell session by opening a new terminal tab or window.

**Q: My shell session is restarted, but tab-completion still isn't working. What should I do?**  

A: Ensure that your shell is on the list of supported shells and is [properly configured](https://docs.brew.sh/Shell-Completion).
