rTorrent

Fast, ncurses-based command-line BitTorrent client for Linux.

Desktopfree

rTorrent is a command-line, ncurses-based BitTorrent client built for high performance on headless Linux servers, often used on seedboxes with a separate web front end layered on top. It's developed alongside its own libtorrent library and is one of the long-running open-source torrent clients. It's aimed at server and seedbox operators who want a lightweight terminal client rather than a graphical one.
