UNWORKABLE(1)          DragonFly General Commands Manual         UNWORKABLE(1)

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.
