monero-wallet-cli commands

First off, to start the CLI, type:

$ monero-wallet-cli

If there's no wallet file in the current directory it will be created for you on startup, otherwise you'll need to choose a wallet name and one will be created for you.

Important: Monero wallets consist of two files, a wallet file and a keys file. For example if your wallet is called my-wallet, the files will be my-wallet (wallet data file) and my-wallet.keys (key file). Both of these files are needed. Once in the wallet REPL, the following commands are available:

Change wallet password

[wallet]: password

Get current balance

[wallet]: balance
