Depends on your BT client what browser integration, command line options, etc. you will get, but I have no problems using the command line with my client (I'm using a binary package of the source release for my distro, Slackware) . 1. Download .torrent file to directory of choice 2. 'cd' to above directory 3. btlaunchmanycurses.py ./ BT will find all the .torrent files in the directory automatically and download to the current directory. If the download stops or you need to shut down the computer just repeat steps 2 and 3 above and BT will automatically resume any previously started downloads.
