Transmission

I know it's an old thread, but it's the highest hit in Google.

I was wanting some features like this as well, so I implemented the basics using Java. It's far from finished and it appears that Transmission is not really handling all the requests very well. I haven't had time to continue development ...

Hi,

I'm using Transmission in combination with an automatic unrar program. This program requires my torrents to be moved to the \completed\ folder.
