i wrote a script some time ago that automaticaly checks a tracker for new torrents, downloads the torrents and opens them with ktorrent.

now ktorrent always askes for which parts of the torrent i want to download, before starting the download. but that defeats the purpose of my script since i always have to confirm the download, which can be so annoying too.

how can I disable that prompt, so that ktorrent downloads the whole torrent without asking me which parts of it should it download. I am using ktorrent 2.2.7 on debian lenny.

Oh and is there or will there be a ktorrent 3.x for kde 3.5 since debian lenny still uses that version of kde?

Use openSilently() instead of open()... or whatever the exact names are.

3.1.1 is already in sid, so 3.1.2 will be there too. Not sure about lenny, guess not.

erm i am not sure what you mean, i open the torrent file in a shell script like this

Code: Select all

ktorrent $pathToTorrent

You need to use DCOP. Take a look at the script stickied in the other forum.
