kfile_torrent

This is a KFilePlugin designed to extend Konqueror's meta info plugins to display meta information regarding the .torrent files used by BitTorrent.

2004-05-22: Kharkoma (kharkoma (AT) telefonica (DOT) net) has submitted a Debian package for v0.6, for the x86 architecture. Download it (36K)

2004-05-20: Released v0.6, which adds no new features. Instead, the code base has been cleaned up and more KDE and Qt libraries have been worked in. The code no longer uses the C++ STL or C++ standard library, so it should compile on more compilers.

2004-02-02: Released v0.5, which includes support for editing the Comment and Name fields of the .torrent files.

Gentoo users: I have created an ebuild for the plugin, which you can download from this location:
http://grammarian.homelinux.net/torrent/kfile_torrent_ebuild.tar.bz2.
You need to enable the Portage directory overlay (PORTDIR_OVERLAY in /etc/make.conf), and then extract the archive in that directory. For example, if you have set PORTDIR_OVERLAY=/usr/local/portage, you should first create the directory if it doesn't exist, and then:
$ cd /usr/local/portage
$ tar xjf /path/to/downloaded/kfile_torrent_ebuild.tar.bz2
$ emerge -p kfile_torrent
$ emerge kfile_torrent
All versions are included in the ebuild archive, in case you would like to install a different version than the latest.

If you need help, please e-mail me at mpyne ( AT ) grammarian ( DOT ) homelinux ( DOT ) net
I'm sorry about the opaqueness of the address, you should be able to figure it out ;-)
