transmission-create: Create a torrent with multiple trackers.
$ transmission-create -o ${path-to-example-torrent} --tracker ${tracker_url1} --tracker ${tracker_url2} ${filename_or_directory}
try on your machine

The command "transmission-create" is used in the Transmission BitTorrent client to create a new torrent file. Let's break down the components:

  • "transmission-create": This is the command itself.

  • "-o ${path-to-example-torrent}": This option specifies the output file path and name for the torrent file to be created. "${path-to-example-torrent}" should be replaced with the desired path and filename.

  • "--tracker ${tracker_url1}": This option specifies the URL of the first tracker to be added to the torrent file. "${tracker_url1}" should be replaced with the actual URL of the tracker.

  • "--tracker ${tracker_url2}": This option specifies the URL of the second tracker to be added to the torrent file. "${tracker_url2}" should be replaced with the actual URL of the tracker.

  • "${filename_or_directory}": This is the file or directory that you want to create a torrent for. It should be replaced with the actual path to the file or directory.

To use this command, you need to have the Transmission BitTorrent client installed on your system. By running this command with the appropriate options and arguments, you will create a new torrent file at the specified location, including the specified trackers and the specified file or directory as its content.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
