Clutch: A Silica frontend for the Transmission Torrent Client.

At present Clutch is quite simple, but it allows Transmission to be used without touching the CLI.

Clutch starts transmission-daemon when the app is opened, and displays the web UI where you can upload .torrent files and monitor the progress of your torrents. The transmission process is automatically killed when the app closes.

A few modifications have been made to the Silica WebView to improve the Transmission Web UI's ease of use:

• File picker (for uploading .torrent files)
• Pixel ratio / page width modified to suit phone screen size
• Some padding above the WebView to prevent accidentally pressing the "back" dot on the page when clicking open file.

Available on OpenRepos.

Transmission is a dependency of Clutch. You can install the version in my repository (should be automatically installed if you use Warehouse) or use the version in NielDK's repo.

Both Clutch and Transmission are open source software (GPLv2+). The source for Clutch is available on Github; the source for Transmission is available on the Transmission website.
