[RndTbl] bittorrent

[Sean A. Walberg]

I pull mine in through Yum (note it's for FC1, you might want to change 
the url)

/etc/yum.conf:
[NewRPMs]
name=Fedora Linux $releasever - $basearch - NewRPMs
baseurl=http://newrpms.sunsite.dk/apt/redhat/en/i386/fc1/

Then you can "yum search bittorrent", or just install the client "yum 
install bittorrent".

I don't use BT a whole lot, but I've found the easiest way is to find the 
bittorrent URL, and then run

btdownloadcurses.py URL

There are some other possibilities, such as using a GUI or even 
backgrounding it, but the curses interface Works For Me (TM).
