Azureus/Vuze Torrent Search Plugin version 0.1 released

The initial release 0.1 of the Azureus/Vuze Torrent Search Plugin has been released. The torrent search plugin allows for quick and easy location of torrent resources across the net. It uses existing torrent trackers as the source for this information. Currently, eight popular torrent trackers or engines are supported, and new torrent trackers can be added easily within the existing framework.

Torrent engines can be activated or deactivated to limit results from only desired sources. Additionally, the torrent search plugin supports quick and easy downloading of located resources -- all within the Azureus/Vuze environment.

Results returned from the search are presented, and the user can select a torrent resource and perform the following functions:

1. View torrent details
2. Download the torrent file to the desktop
3. Start the torrent
4. Start the torrent in a stopped state
5. Open a torrent download window to see the contents of the torrent before downloading or selecting only parts of the torrent to download

Note: The plugin has been fully tested on OS X. The torrent-specific popup functions available from returned search results are not currently functional on Windows platforms.
