+BTPD is a bittorrent client consisting of a daemon and
+client commands, which can be used to read and/or
+manipulate the daemon state. The daemon is capable of
+running several torrents simultaneously and only uses one
+tcp port. It's fairly low on resource usage and should be
+perfect for file distribution sites. Efficient downloads and
+ease of use makes this client a good choice for the casual
+user as well.
+
+Features:
+* Runs multiple torrents simultaneously;
+* Only uses one tcp port;
+* Command line interface;
+* Runs as a daemon; no need for constant gui or terminal;
+* Bandwidth rate limiting for out- and inbound traffic;
+* Supports the multitracker extension;
+* Supports the key tracker extension.
