When I switched to my FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE amd64 machine, I didn't really want to go through the hassle of getting Java to work nicely. So I searched around the ports for another one, and /usr/ports/net/rtorrent works for me. Yes, it is text based but it supports queues and you can screen it. It's also written in C++ so there isn't a need for Python. -Mark
