Rtorrent is a BitTorrent client based on LibTorrent. It uses ncurses and aims to be a lean, yet powerful BitTorrent client, with features similar to the most complex graphical clients.
Since it is a terminal application, it can be used with the "screen"/"dtach" utility so that the user can conveniently logout from the system while keeping the file transfers active.
Some of the features of rtorrent include:
* Use an URL or file path to add torrents at runtime
* Stop/delete/resume torrents
* Optionally loads/saves/deletes torrents automatically in a session
directory
* Safe fast resume support
* Detailed information about peers and the torrent
* Support for distributed hash tables (DHT)
* Support for peer-exchange (PEX)
* Support for initial seeding (Superseeding)
