Deluge
Deluge is a
BitTorrent client for Linux and other Unix-Like operating systems. It
was created because of the lack of a good, native, GTK based torrent
solution for Linux.
Deluge is intended to be lightweight and unobtrusive. It
allows
multiple downloads in a single window, hiding the
window to the system tray, and several more features are currently
being developed.
It supports the following network features: Mainline
DHT, FAST protocol extension, uTorrent Peer Exchange, BitTorrent
Protocol Encryption,
UPnP and NAT-PMP, proxy support for Peers, Tracker, DHT and Web-Seed,
and private torrents.
Check out KTorrent
for an alternative to Deluge. KTorrent is designed
for the K Desktop Environment (KDE).
