NAME

       unworkable — download files via BitTorrent

SYNOPSIS

       unworkable [-s] [-g port] [-p port] [-t tracefile] torrent

DESCRIPTION

       The unworkable program is used to download files via the BitTorrent protocol.

       When unworkable is executed with a valid .torrent file as an argument, it will proceed to announce to the
       tracker, connect to peers and download the data.  Upon completion of the download, the program will exit,
       unless seed-mode is enabled.

       -g port
               If  specified,  run  the GUI control server on port port.  By default, no GUI control server will
               run.

       -p port
               If specified, listen for incoming BitTorrent peer connections on port.   By  default,  unworkable
               does not accept incoming connections.

       -s      Enable seed-mode, that is, keep running and seed after download is complete.

       -t tracefile
               Trace execution, outputting to tracefile.
