sharktorrent is a cross-platform BitTorrent
client. It is written in C++ using Qt4 and Arvid
Norberg’s libtorrent.
License: GNU General Public License (GPL)

When the main window is minimized or trayed, GUI

When sharktorrent is executed with parameters and
another instance is running, those files will be
opened by the previously-running instance. Files
are copied to a directory, and the running
instance is notified through QSettings.

TDFSB reads directory information and displays it
as a 3D world. cd’ing into another directory is

displays their contents. It plays MP3 files and MPEG-1 videos as 3D objects.
License: GNU General Public License (GPL)
Changes:
This release works with freeglut and gives tdfsb a
centered view on
startup.
