I just installed bittorrent-3.4.2-5 from testing.
What is the command to invoke it?
man btdownloadcurses --> if you want the ncurses-based UI
man btdownloadheadless --> the interface for "headless" chickens of
machines
using screen with multiple btdownloadheadless (aliased as btdh) sessions is
the salvation and flooding of my connection.
With this:
cd ~/data6/torrents/new/ && btlaunchmany . --display_interval 10
--save_options 1 --max_upload_rate -1
running in an xterm, suitably small font, gets each line on one line,
updated at a reasonable rate. Just d/l .torrent files and save them in
d/l dir/. Restart on every boot. Once d/l'd, and suitably seeded, of
course, mv them elsewhere. Merely pauses if disk space fills, carries on
once you've cleared out some completed d/l's. Adds power to your CPU!
512kb ADSL = 40 concurrent torrents, maxed-out bandwidth! (24/7 !!!)
When I want to use aptitude, I do a ^Z, and when fg'd again, it picks
right up, NO need for it to re-check the d/l file!
:-)
Keep on topping up dir/ with torrents, mv both torrent and d/l out once
seeded "enough" [>=1:1]
You'll soon [2 months??] find you don't have TIME to watch THAT MANY
movies!!!
