iTorrent

Advanced Use:

To use alternate options for iTorrent, you'll need to run it from the command line. To run iTorrent from the command line, Windows users need to open a command prompt, cd into the iTorrent-alpha-2 directory, and run iTorrent:

> iTorrent

Mac users need to open a terminal, cd into the iTorrent-alpha-2/iTorrent.app/Contents/MacOS directory, and run iTorrent:

$ ./iTorrent

iTorrent has several options that can only be used if you start iTorrent from the command-line (rather than double-clicking on iTorrent). To view all of the available options, run iTorrent with the --help command-line option:

> iTorrent --help

For example, if you want iTorrent to use port 3333 instead of its default port 80, you need to supply the --control_port option on the command-line:

> iTorrent --control_port 3333

When you run iTorrent from the command-line, you can stop iTorrent by pressing Ctrl-C or Ctrl-Break, rather than closing the terminal window.
