NAME
btdownloadgui — GUI bittorrent download interface
SYNOPSIS
btdownloadgui [options ...] URL
btdownloadgui [options ...] filename
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the btdownloadgui command.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the
original program does not have a manual page.
btdownloadgui is a GUI interface to download torrents.
btdownloadgui will open a provided torrent URL or file and download it
until complete. It will then seed (upload) the torrent until it is
stopped.
