transmission-gtk — a bittorrent client
Contents
Description
transmission-gtk is a fast and easy BitTorrent client.
BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer file transfer protocol which uses a metainfo file (usually with the .torrent
file extension) and a central tracker to distribute file data amongst a group of peers. For more
information on the BitTorrent protocol see http://www.bittorrent.org/Environment
TRANSMISSION_HOME

http_proxy libcurl uses this environment variable when performing tracker announces. If set, this
overrides the GNOME proxy preferences.

Where to look for configuration files. This can be used to swap between using the cli, daemon,
gtk, and qt clients. See
https://github.com/transmission/transmission/blob/main/docs/Configuration-Files.md for more
information.
Multiple .torrent files may be added at startup by appending them on the command line. If
transmission-gtk is already running, the torrents will be added to the running instance.
