Hi Michael

Bittorrent is supported in Platero which is the standard P2P client
for ArkLinux.

To be honest, I prefer to let my browser do the hard work rather than
me copying and pasting in the links, so I use a Python script called
btdownloadgui.py which is available from
http://bittorrent.com/download.html.  Download, unzip and follow the
install instructions in INSTALL.unix.txt.
