If you are running linux and have bittorrent installed then you can
just open the torrent file from the webbrowser. Alternatively the
command line<br>
<br>
<code>btdownloadheadless --url <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://someplace/file.torrent">http://someplace/file.torrent</a>
--saveas
file<br>
<br>
</code>should do the trick, although it tends to spew out too much info
which you probably want to pipe to /dev/null.<br>
You can use btdownloadcurses instead if you want to interact, or
btdownloadgui if you have X available.<br>
Bittorrent is installed by default in Ubuntu.<br>
<br>
If you're running Windows then you can probably just download
bittorrent and open the torrent files from your webbrowser. I don't
know how to automate it using that though.<br>
<br>
<br>
There doesn't seem to be any activity on the planet torrent though...
not finding any seeds or peers.<br>
