.SH "DESCRIPTION" 
.PP 
This manual page documents briefly the 
\fBbittorrent-multi-downloader\fR command. 
.PP 
This manual page was written for the \fBDebian\fP distribution 
because the original program does not have a manual page. 
.PP 
\fBbtlaunchmany\fR and \fBbtlaunchmanycurses\fR are 
programs that ease the use of bittorrent in multiple-downloader situations. 
The programs check the provided \fIdirectory\fR for torrent files. When they find any, they start 
a separate downloader thread for each torrent file. These programs share a common set of options, shown below. 
For more information on how to run them, and any program-specific options, see their individual man pages. 
.SH "OPTIONS" 
.PP 
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, 
with long options starting with two dashes (`\-\-'). 
.PP 
In addition to the options shown below, these programs share the same common options 
with the normal downloaders, which are documented in 
\fBbittorrent-downloader\fP\fB(1)\fP. 
 
.IP "\fB\-\-parse_dir_interval \fIseconds\fR\fP" 10 
the number of \fIseconds\fR between re-scanning the provided directory (defaults to 60) 
.IP "\fB\-\-saveas_style\fP 1|2|3" 10 
how to name torrent downloads (1 = rename to torrent name, 2 = save 
under name in torrent, 3 = save in directory under torrent name) 
(defaults to 1 for \fBbtlaunchmany\fR, 2 for \fBbtlaunchmanycurses\fR) 
.IP "\fB\-\-display_path\fP 0|1" 10 
whether to display the full path or the torrent contents for each 
torrent (defaults to 1 for \fBbtlaunchmany\fR, 0 for \fBbtlaunchmanycurses\fR)
