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.

OPTIONS

       This  program  follows  the  usual  GNU  command  line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes
       (`--').  A summary of options is included below.

       In addition to the program-specific options described below, this program uses the same common options as
