bittorrent client with enhanced curses interface

bittorrent is a tool for distributing files. Whenever more than one person is downloading at once they send pieces of the file(s) to each other, thus relieving the central server's bandwidth burden. Even with many simultaneous downloads, the upload burden on the central server remains quite small, since each new downloader introduces new upload capacity.

BitTornado is the next generation bittorrent client built on the original BitTorrent. This client features an enhanced console/curses mode, lots of new features under the hood, and is generally one of the most advanced clients out there. Get this if you need to limit your bandwidth, or you want more control of your torrents. It does everything the original bittorrent does, plus more...

This package only contains the curses interfaces, install the package bittornado-gui to get the GUI components
