transmissioncli with multiple torrents and ncurses

Description

I was looking for some really small torrent client to use on my LinkStation? (266MHz PPC 603e, 128MB RAM) and found it in Transmission.

To fully exploit its potential I did some quick hacking to transmissioncli to make it multi-torrent capable and ncurses-enhanced. Please find attached patches for 0.6.1, svn 20061104 and a preliminary update for today's svn which isn't tested, yet.

Multi-torrent support changes quite a bit of code while maintaning the basic structure of transmissioncli. ncurses support is a compile time option using a HAVE_NCURSES define and some ugly ifdef's which do the trick for me. You'll need to add -DHAVE_NCURSES and -lncurses to CFLAGS and LDFLAGS respectively.

Michael,

I don't know how this ticket has slipped through the cracks for so long. Are you interested in updating the patch to work with 0.90?

  • Milestone changed from Sometime to None Set
  • Severity changed from Major to Normal

I would love to accept this patch but it needs to be synced with the current codebase.

If there's nobody interested in maintaining it, maybe it's better left out. :(
