It seems to me that --saveas does what you want, the argument can also be a directory (although this is not clear in the manpage, I will change this for the next release).
I thought, but am not positive, that you can also do: btlaunchmanycurses /tmp/torrents which will pull the .torrent files from /tmp/torrents and put the downloads into your CWD, I'd test this out first though. Micah
