BitTornado Helper

by Howard The Duck last modified 2005-08-08 04:56 PM

A little tool to easily create a --priority commandline parameter for the bittornado client.

About

I wrote that tool at the end of 2004 within 4 hours as my first wxPython program ever. I needed a GUI to selectively download files from within bittorrent archives. I like python therefore I gave wxPython a shot. The tool was used by me on Linux and a friend of mine on Windows since then. Both of us ran it directly from source, which works nice on Linux but is quite complicated on Windows. Now at the beginning of August 2005 I decided to release the source and create a standalone .exe and Mac OS X .app. Linux users, and people on other wxPython compatible platforms may use the sourcecode main.py directly (Be sure to have bittornado installed, because the tool uses one of its pythonlibraries).

Usage

  • Use File/Open to load a .torrent file and select the files you want to have priorities changed.
  • Change priorities with the 4 buttons available
  • Press "create commandline" button and copy/paste the resulting commandline to your shell
