I am getting started with torrent. Currently, I am using ctorrent (from
pkgsrc).

Can ctorrent be stopped and restarted? Or will it start downloading from
the beginning again?

If it can be restarted to continue same downloads, where does it keep its
status file?

Can different torrent clients be used to continue previously started
torrent downloads?

For example, could I stop ctorrent and then restart with using rtorrent?

(rtorrent is in pkgsrc-wip but is out-of-date.)

I could figure this out myself by trying ... does anyone know of some good
documentation I can read to learn more about this?

Thanks,

 Jeremy C. Reed
