Bitflu 0.42 (Default branch)
Image Bitflu is a BitTorrent client designed to run non-stop as a daemon. It does not provide a graphical interface, but offers a telnet interface and can handle multiple torrent downloads. License: Artistic License Changes:
This release fixes a security problem in the default storage plugin: A malicious torrent could have caused it to append data to existing files while committing the download. An annoying networking bug that made bitflu drop connections has also been fixed.Image

FLUSH(1)						      General Commands Manual							  FLUSH(1)

NAME

       Flush - GTK-based BitTorrent client

SYNOPSIS

       flush [OPTIONS] [TORRENT_FILE]...

DESCRIPTION

       Flush is a GTK-based BitTorrent client. You can use it to download files from the BitTorrent network.

       You can control already running instance, for example, by following commands:
	      flush -o --download-rate-limit=100
	      flush --start=all

FEATURES

       * Controlling running instance by command line interface, such as:
	 * Starting/stopping torrents.
	 * Changing download/upload rate limit.
	 * Changing maximum connections limit.
       * Running many instances with different configs from the same user.
       * Automatic copying finished downloads to specified directory.
       * Setting custom download path for each file of the torrent.
       * Ability to choose torrent file's character set encoding.
       * Automatic torrents loading from specified directory.
       * Automatic pausing and removing old torrents.
       * Temporary pausing and resuming torrents.
       * Overall and current session statistics.
       * Creating your own torrent files.
       * IP filter.

       --help Show help options and exit.

       --config=DIRECTORY
	      Configuration directory path (default: ~/.flush).

       --download-rate-limit=SPEED
	      Set download rate limit (KB/s).

       --upload-rate-limit=SPEED
	      Set upload rate limit (KB/s).

       --max-uploads=NUMBER
	      Set maximum uploads.

       --max-connections=NUMBER
	      Set maximum connections.

       --start={all,downloads,uploads}
	      Start torrents.

       --stop={all,downloads,uploads}
	      Stop torrents.

       -o, --only-pass
	      Only pass commands to already running Flush instance. Does not start new instance if it is not running yet.

FILES

       ~/.flush
	      Default configuration directory.

BUGS

       On  startup  Flush  finds  already  running  instances via DBus session bus. Therefore it is necessary to run Flush in a single session bus
       (usual in X session bus) to prevent running several instances with one configuration path.

       Please notice that when you are running Flush from console or by cron, when DISPLAY environment variable  is  not  available,  Flush  finds
       already	running  GUI  instance	without problems via ${config_path}/dbus_session link, which all GUI instances are creating when they have
       owned DBus name. This makes it possible to control running Flush GUI instances from cron.
