How to create torrent files?

2006-12-18 Thread Erik Norgaard 

Hi:

Which tools are available for creating torrent files? I am looking for a
commandline tool or a perl module that would permit creating a torrent
file like this

   $ maketorrent -t tracker -o file.torrent path

But it seems only py-torrent provides a tool and it's GUI based.

Thanks, Erik

I haven't used that port in a while, but I'm pretty sure it includes a
maketorrent-console.py script. I'm not anywhere I can check to ensure
that though.

Hi Erik,

one tool you could use is ctorrent.

/usr/ports/net-p2p/ctorrent/
ctorrent -t -u tracker_url -s torrent_name source
