# btlaunchmanycurses.bittorrent(1)

multiple file clients for bittorrent

Part of [bittorrent-multi-downloader.bittorrent(1)](/bittorrent-multi-downloader.bittorrent/1.md).

## NAME

bittorrent-multi-downloader - multiple file clients for bittorrent

## SYNOPSIS

```
btlaunchmany dirname [ option ... ]
btlaunchmanycurses dirname [ option ... ]
```

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **btlaunchmany** and  **btlaunchmanycurses** commands. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

**btlaunchmany** is a program that eases the use of  bittorrent in multiple-downloader situations.  The program checks a directory for torrent files.  When it finds any, it starts a  separate downloader thread for each file.

## OPTIONS

These programs have the exact same options as the normal  downloaders, which are documented in **bittorrent-downloader**(1).

## SEE ALSO

**bittorrent-downloader**(1), **btmakemetafile**(1), **bttrack**(1).\
