on GitHub

This release of PicoTorrent brings a bunch of new features and also a few bug fixes. Most notably, PicoTorrent can now check for updates and also has better shell integration with a notification icon showing torrent completions.

Features

• Adds a notification icon which also shows balloon tips/notification messages when a torrent completes. Clicking these notifications will open the save path in Windows Explorer. (#42)
• Added an option to the torrent context menu to open the torrents save path in Windows Explorer. (#46)
• The PicoTorrent installer has been updated and now includes both a UI and the required Visual C++ runtime. (#49)
• Add a configuration option to always add torrents to the default save path - i.e do not show the Choose save path dialog. (#50)
• The preferences dialog now has a browse button for the default save path input. (#52)
• The torrent list view now features multi-selection and the torrent context menu has been rewritten to act upon N torrents. (#53)
• When starting PicoTorrent, it will now check for updates and show a message if one exist. (#55)

Fixes

• The save path dialog would show even though you cancelled the add torrent dialog. (#45)
• Removing a torrent and adding it back again in the same session would log an error saying the torrent already existed. (#51)
