The daemon is capable of -btpd: running several torrents simultaneously and only uses one -btpd: tcp port. It's fairly low on resource usage and should be -btpd: perfect for file distribution sites. Efficient downloads and -btpd: ease of use makes this client a good choice for the casual -btpd: user as well. -btpd: Homepage: http://www.murmeldjur.se/btpd/ +btpd: Btpd is a utility for sharing files over the BitTorrent network +btpd: protocol. It runs in daemon mode, thus needing no controlling +btpd: terminal or gui. Instead, the daemon is controlled by the btcli +btpd: command line utility, or other programs capable of sending commands +btpd: and queries on the btpd control socket. +btpd: The goal is to provide a healthy alternative to the still prevailing +btpd: ftp/http servers for file distribution sites and a good BitTorrent +btpd: client for the casual user. +btpd: Homepage: http://www.murmeldjur.se/btpd/ |
