Is there a program like ktorrent, for the console (no X) in debian stable?

frenchn00b · 08-19-2009, 02:01 PM

Hello,

From SSH/SSH2 I am looking from apt-cache search, but still bittorrent is the only way for no X. It cannot be like ktorrent with has many features, like azureaus. Is there something by chance for hte remote/distant for torrent?

Best regards

ctorrent

edit: Seems it's an abandoned project, though the homepage links to rtorrent, which does the same.

Glad you got it. I just discovered rtorrent a month ago, but it had to have been in lenny when it was released as stable earlier this year.
