G3 Torrent v1.01

G3 Torrent is an extended BitTorrent client based on the original Python code.

Its features include:

· Queuing and downloading of multiple torrents. (Starting, stopping, pausing, queue up, queue down etc)
· Real-time list of peer addresses and their statistics. Reverse DNS toggle-able.
· Advanced Progress bar graphically illustrates which pieces of the file have been downloaded.
· A graph to display upload and download rates over time. Each torrent being downloaded has it's own graph record.
· Optional Web Interface for remote adminstration.
· Friends Priority System. Friends IP address can be set to get upload preference if they are downloading the same file.
· Temporary upload priority can be given to peers by right clicking them in the list.
· Peers can be banned by right clicking them in the list.
· With torrents that contain multiple files:

* The user can select the order they will download in.
o This is usefull in cases where you only really want 1 file in the torrent.
o Or need certain files to arrive before others.
o The client will not reject peers who want to upload but do not have pieces from the file that has the immediate download priority.
* Or they can be downloaded in a random order. (Rarest pieces first algorithm not withstanding)
o In most cases this is the best strategy. As it is benefits the overall health of the torrent by keeping a wide range of pieces available, and reduces reliance on seeders.

· "Fast Resume" capability.

* When restarting or resuming, the client will automatically reconnect to all of those peers you were connected when you either exited the client or paused a torrent.

1. Always automatically stop when download completes
2. Only when there other files in queue
