Hello, on rtorrent watch directories are great, with them you can move downloaded stuff from one directory to another, once the download is complete.

However, when you introduce magnet links though the NCI, then I haven't found a way to get the stuff monitored and acted upon downloads completion. I guess only "watched" stuff can be monitored and acted upon... Torrent files can be watched easily by placing the torrents under the watch directories. However I don't know how to do that with magnet links, unless of course converting them into torrent files and then placing them into the watch directories.

Furthermore, the same apply to torrent files, which URLs are provided through the NCI, without downloading the torrents into the watch directories, since nothing introduced through the NCI seems to be monitored. So I would extend the question on how to "watch" stuff introduced through the NCI.

I'm using NCI for "ncurses interface", to make it shorter, :) Thanks !
