Here's the old Wiki page

http://pupweb.org/wikka/BitTorrent

and the new wiki Torrent page doesn't exist yet - waiting to be updated

I found Transmission

Torrent explained

Please add any suggestions

Some say this doesn't work with transmission....


transmission dotpet/thread here

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=38969

and a mime torrent helper, torrents-transmission.pet by ttuuxxx

Quote:
mimes work as helpers, say if you have transmission p2p installed and you downloaded a torrent file,
first you would have to open transmission
then you would have click file and search for that torrent and finally open it to begin downloading.
BUT if you had the mime file type extension installed for .torrent
all you would have to do is download a torrent and click it, it will automatically open up transmission and begin loading your torrent, all with one single click.
better yet when you download a file with rox, it gives you an option to always open this file with an application, if you set it to/root/.config/rox.sourceforge.net/MIME-types/application_x-bittorrent it will automatically load up also with no clicking involved. plus you'll still have the option of a single click load the torrent file and launch the application that uses it.
plus puppy has some defaults that are handy. like defaulttexteditor
if you have a file format say for geany its better to use the default text editor to launch it than geany itself, just in case in the future you drop geany for medit then you won't have to change your mimes, they'll automatically be changed when you set your new defaulttexteditor
