In the windows app utorrent its add dialog box displays folders as just that folders, rather then displaying all the files as a huge list where present. As 0.6 will have "A new add torrent dialog" will it have a similar feature?

If not any chance of having it implemented as i find it to be one of the most use full features of utorrent.

I have considered this and will likely implement it at some point, but for now they are listed in one long list.

You can for instance, run the Deluge daemon on your file server and access it from another computer on your LAN using the gtkui.
Could you tell me a bit more about this?
If I have public IP, can I access to the server from any computer, or only from those on ma LAN?
When I "Quit" Deluge, the Daemon is still working (downloading)?
How to completely remove that version?

That will be a huge milestone in Deluge development :D I can't wait ;) Thank you guys.

Sory for my english :)
Yes, you could access it from any computer, but I wouldn't recommend opening it up to an untrusted network, the WebUI would likely be more suited for that.

If you quit the UI, the daemon may still be running. You can either choose to shutdown both on exit of the UI or you can simply kill the deluged process. There is also the option of stopping the daemon through the Connection Manager dialog in the gtkui.

the main feature Im interested in is the "deamon mode".
It would especially be pleasent to have a deamon i could run on a simple gui-less linux box and access it through the web. mainly I haven't been able to find a good linux torrent client with deamon mode and and a webgui.

I will be watching the development on this project.

keep up the good work!
This is exactly what 0.6 is capable of. The current revisions of 0.6 come with both a GtkUI and a WebUI.

what does deluge 0.6 offer feature-wise in the current head revision
(can check the log but might be better make a small list here)?

It appears it supports bandwidth throttling,
Does it support DHT?

those are the main features needed for my situation.
(and for the most users im guessing)

Currently the only other Plausible webUI solution under linux CLI (which I found) would be rtorrent with an xml-rpc module which allows external communication through apache's SCGI, But I wouldn't recommend this to anyone as it can be incredibly tricky to setup.

So that's why im putting my hopes in this project ;)

Again, its looking nice pretty.
I'll probably give it a try soon.
Files can be found in the latest SVN trunk i take it?

I hope development goes smooth :)

You can get the files in the deluge-0.6 branch, not trunk.

It should be pretty apparent from the error message.. you need boost_thread
