Magnet Transfer

This project was created as a response to the transition from .torrent to Magnet URI's on many Torrent sites. Many people have the same setup as I do, where .torrent files are saved in a shared folder on a server, so that the Torrent Client automatically starts the download.

This application includes a client and a server, coded in Java.
The server application, listens, on the configured port for, Magnet URIs to be sendt from the client. When one is recieved, the configured torrent client adds the download to the client.

The client is very simple "fire and forget" type of java program, where a registry setting enables it to start everytime you click a "magnet:" in any browser. The client then sends the magnet URI, in it's entirety, to the server application, which then adds the download to the torrent client.

This is just an alpha release, so the current code has a very crude design.
