  Overview

  [8]CTorrent is a [9]BitTorrent client implemented in C++ to be
  lightweight and quick. It has fallen a little behind in updates and
  bug fixes though.

  The files here contain the good work of those who wrote the original
  CTorrent base code and a number of patches that provide fixes and
  enhancements, as well as additional fixes and enhancements that I am
  contributing. I am not the original author, current maintainer, or any
  other official representative of CTorrent. The files on this page are
  not the original or official CTorrent distribution. I encourage you to
  visit the [10]CTorrent project page on SourceForge for further
  information.

 Features

  The purpose of the Enhanced CTorrent effort is to fix problems that
  remain in the code, modernize existing features and algorithms, and
  implement new features while maintaining low overhead requirements and
  a high standard of performance (both part of the original CTorrent
  design philosophy). Highlights of the enhanced client include:
    * Support for large files (>2GB) and large torrents (>255 files)
    * Strategic selection of pieces to request for download
    * Continuous queueing of download requests, tuned based on latency
      and throughput for each peer
    * Improved download performance, including parallel requests in
      initial and endgame modes
    * Improved bandwidth regulation
    * Improved compatibility with other peers
    * Performance optimization and bug fixes
    * An interface for monitoring and managing multiple clients

 Status Line

  The status line that is output by the client has changed since the
  original and deserves some explanation.

      / 0/33/110 [672/672/672] 0MB,1130MB | 0,20K/s | 0,0K E:0,31
      - - -- ---  --- --- ---  --- ------   - --      - -    - --
      A B  C  D    E   F   G    H     I     J  K      L M    N  O

  A: Ticker; this character changes to indicate that the client is
  running.
  B: Number of seeders (complete peers) to which you are connected.
  C: Number of leechers (incomplete peers) to which you are connected.
  D: Total number of peers in the swarm, as last reported by the
  tracker.
  E: Number of pieces of the torrent that you have completed.
  F: Number of pieces currently available from you and your connected
  peers.
  G: Total number of pieces in the torrent.
  H: Total amount of data you have downloaded.
  I: Total amount of data you have uploaded.
  J: Your current total download rate.
  K: Your current total upload rate.
  L: Amount of data downloaded since the last status line update.
  M: Amount of data uploaded since the last status line update.
  N: Number of tracker connection errors.
  O: Number of successful tracker connections.

 Peer ID

  Beginning with dnh1.1 the default peer ID has been changed for
  convenience, as some other clients and trackers assume that Ctorrent
  is "buggy" and won't cooperate with it. [Guess what, there are plenty
  of others with bugs too.] The -P option is still available if you wish
  to use a different peer ID, but it is no longer necessary to do so in
  order to avoid this "ban".

  The new default peer ID prefix is "-CDversion-", where version is an
  indication of the version number (0101 for dnh1.1).

 CTCS

  [11]CTorrent Control Server (CTCS) is an interface for monitoring and
  managing Enhanced CTorrent clients. It can manage allocation of
  bandwidth, provide status information, and allow changes to the
  running configuration of each client. Support for this interface was
  added in the dnh2 release.
