I too had questions about getting it to work. must be a secret cause i didn't get much help last time. Once you find a torrent through any browser it "supposed to be able to read the address and begin downloading, but I have yet to get that far.  maybe i'll mess with it in abit.

thanks! will try again later.  Does it matter which browser you use to save the file. I used ibrowse and save to ram.  the file appeared as a txt. file which could be opened by notpad or something. What if i used the downloaded the .torrent from a laptop and transferred it to the amiga, how does it deal with long file names?

Hey Lurkist, I too have been fiddling with it!  The first time I dropped it into my c drawer, and tried downloading an mp3.  It did the same thing you described, then it completed it into ram.  I realized I needed to get it out of c immediately.  I dropped it into another directory in a drive then proceeded to download a file in excess of 90megs.  It placed drawer into the same directory as ctorrent, but no drive activity, meanwhile, my ram starts to get lower!  needless to say i think i'm goind to get that file assuming if it is placing it  in ram again.  I'm using it now, so its hard to tell, I only have 30,000,000 memory and it is showing 21,000,000, but no files appear in ram. :-?

@pvc you're seem to know how ctorrent works :-D what's the command line you use as in cd directory for download since i assume it defaults to ram.  WE me and Lurkist are almost got the hang of this I think. Also I tried ctrl-c but nothing happend it just hung and the little slash kept spinning! weird! :-?
