NAME

SYNOPSIS

       bttrack  [ option ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly  the bttrack command.  This manual page was written for the Debian
       distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       bttrack is a program that serves as a "tracker" for bittorrent clients.  This program keeps track of  the
       completion of each client, and communicates that information when requested to other clients.
