G'day all,

I have install bittornado on a headless debian box.
At present I have acouple of torrents going and was wondering if there is a way to check the status of the download when I log into the box.

Cheers..

best way is to use the CLI like this

#screen
#./btlaunchmanycurses etc etc etc
#cntrl+a cntrl+d

then logout.
later login type screen -r and your back to your files (still uploading/downloading). this works very well as you can just forget and come back in a few days if needed.
note, just type exit to get rid of the screen (once you shutdown bt).
