Basic usage

Creating a torrent is as simple as:

The shortcut bestN can be used for conveniently adding the best N trackers from ngosang/trackerslist. Example:

py3createtorrent -t best3 file_or_folder

Multiple trackers can also be specified manually by using -t multiple times, for example:

py3createtorrent -t udp://tracker.opentrackr.org:1337/announce -t udp://tracker.coppersurfer.tk:6969/announce file_or_folder
