bittorrent-gui - GUI versions of the BitTorrent file transfer tools

Website: http://www.bittorrent.com/
License: BitTorrent
Vendor: Fedora Project
Description:
BitTorrent is a tool for distributing files. It's extremely easy to use -
downloads are started by clicking on hyperlinks. Whenever more than one person
is downloading at once they send pieces of the file(s) to each other, thus
relieving the central server's bandwidth burden. Even with many simultaneous
downloads, the upload burden on the central server remains quite small, since
each new downloader introduces new upload capacity.

This package contains the graphical versions of the BitTorrent tools.
