torrent
 
Does anyone know a good program to download torrents, beside bittorrent and azureus?

Ktorrent and deluge. I prefer ktorrent because it fits in nicely with KDE.

you can use ktorrent.It's same as utorrent in windows and is a very good torrent program


It can be found in the extra folder of Slackware cd or and mirror site

reddazz, thanks for deluge. I didn't know this one.


bittorent (the father of them all)
azureus (eats RAM)
abc torrent
bittornado
pitorrent(through wine)

My favourite is ctorrent. There's a slackbuild for it at www.slackbuilds.org/repository/network/ctorrent/. It's a command line utility and very lightweight.

There is also a python based torrent(commandline). Look under /extra on the dvd, or disc 3 or 4, or whichever it is on the cd isos now. Thats the one I use.

Deluge is alright. I use it on FreeBSD 6.2 with XFCE. The only problem is that at the mo its not as feature rich as ktorrent and Azureus.
