[btqueue-users] setting up Crawler and auto downloads

[Benjamin T. <ta...@ho...>]

Hi all!

Thanks for a nice app Sugree Phatanapherom, a torrent app that runs as=20=

a daemon and is text based is just what I've been looking for! I've got=20=

btqueue up and running and I think I figured out the basic functions=20
and setup. I struggling with the auto-download part though. I've looked=20=

through the mailing-list archive, the project forums and the example=20
files that came with btqueue but I don't really know what I'm doing yet=20=

;) I've never posted to a sourceforge mailinglist before, hope this=20
message isn't to long...

any pointers would be of great help, best regards,

/Benjamin
