The library differentiates itself from other implementations by transfering directly from file pages to the network stack. The client uses ncurses and is ideal for use with [http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/ screen] or [http://dtach.sourceforge.net/ dtach]. It supports saving of sessions and allows the user to add and remove torrents. == Issues and bugs == * [https://github.com/rakshasa/rtorrent/issues https://github.com/rakshasa/rtorrent/issues] * [https://github.com/rakshasa/libtorrent/issues https://github.com/rakshasa/libtorrent/issues] == Stable Release == * [http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/downloads/libtorrent-0.13.2.tar.gz libtorrent-0.13.2.tar.gz] * [http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/downloads/rtorrent-0.9.2.tar.gz rtorrent-0.9.2.tar.gz] This release consists mostly of bugfixes and improvements done for [http://xirvik.com/ Xirvik Servers] as part of a sponsorship agreement to improve their performance and stability.
