A solo-built terminal tool searches many torrent sources at once
torlnk is a torrent search and download tool that runs in the instead of a browser. It searches several sources at once, including FitGirl, YTS, EZTV, Nyaa, SubsPlease, and Solid. Results appear as each source responds, with the source name, file size, and number of seeders shown for each item.
If one source is down, the search continues through the others and reports the failed source. A user can move with arrow keys, press d, and download the chosen item straight to disk. It runs with one command, `npx torlnk`, as long as Node is installed.
The name is torlnk because torlink was too close to an existing package name. It can queue several , keep downloading in the , resume after quitting, and seed finished by default, with an option to turn that off per item. The project has reached about 178 stars.
