text based torrent client?


Anybody know of a simple text-based torrent client? I don't feel like going through the azeureus nightmare and gui takes too many resources anyhow.

Just download the python source from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/b...ar.gz?download

As long as you have Python installed, you can run btdownloadcurses.py from a text window or console and download any torrent file without the GUI overhead.
