Key Features

• Easy Integration: Enhance usability by creating aliases for frequently used searches:

  alias tpb='torge tpb'
  alias libgen='torge libgen'
  alias limetorrents='torge lt'
  alias nyaa='torge nyaa'
  alias 1337x='torge 1337x'

• Flexible Search Options: Utilize different commands to refine search results by date, size, or other criteria. Examples include:

  • Search for the smallest Linux ISOs on The Pirate Bay:

torge tpb -s size -r linux iso ```

• Search for scientific articles about evolution on Libgen:

torge libgen -p 2 -m science evolution ```

• Custom Output: Tailor search results format through options such as CSV or JSON. For instance, outputting results in CSV format:

torge SOURCE --csv -D '\t' your search query

- **Additional Functionalities**: Integrate with your clipboard or transmission tools for enhanced efficiency:
```shell
ftorge() {
    res="$(torge "$@" --no-clipboard --no-prompt --choose 'fzf --ansi --multi | cut -f1 | paste -sd ,')"
    [ "$?" -ne '0' ] && return
    if [ "$1" = 'libgen' ]; then
        {
            echo -n 'wget '
            sed "s/^/'/;s/$/'/" <<< "$res" | paste -sd ' '
        } | xclip -r -sel clip
    else
        for i in $res; do
            transmission-remote -a "$i"
        done
    fi
}

This simplified scripting solution for torrent link searches allows easier access to content, and added configurations enable tailored usage to fit various needs. Ideal for users who often toggle between multiple sites to find desired torrents.
