Torrent linker

Hello there, so its been a while and I really will try to post more, to say sorry I've written some python goodness for you.

This little application was written to organise my torrents, I'm currently using utorrent over wine on my Linux server and most of my torrents are from private trackers each with their own tracker hostname. What this application does is creates a link to your torrents but puts them in a folder depending on what hostname it is, this way when I connect to my XBMC I can see all of the videos from www.thebox.bz and not the audio from what.cd or the videos from passthepopcorn. This also helps management on your system.

To set this up you need to ammend the 4 lines that are at the top of the script refering to folders
- torrentfilesdirectory (folder holding the completed *.torrent)
- torrent_completed_dir (folder holding the complteted files)
- link_directory (folder to create the links in)
- torrent_move_to_dir (folder to move the *.torrents into)

As always the code is open source so do what you want from it, happy new year
