Note

rTorrentAutoDelete is very much a work-in-progress and should be used with caution This project was created to facilite batch deletion on finished downloads as currently with other GUIs for rTorrent it is a very painful process.

TODO

Following improvements are still yet to be done (by order of priority) :

• Add a setting to change number of minute of hours to auto delete
• Handle errors on validating settings with a proper GUI.
• Improve listing GUI.
• Make FTP client optional (delete keeping data)
