BAKA

BAKA is an open-source torrent search and download tool for Windows. It searches public torrent indexers and lets users download the results without leaving the terminal. The program is intended for people who prefer a command-line workflow for finding and managing downloads. Its design places search and download activity within one standalone application.

BAKA is distributed as a single binary, so it does not require a separate runtime to be installed. Downloads can continue in the background while the user performs additional searches. When a download finishes, BAKA continues seeding it until the user stops it. The program keeps its settings on one page inside its interface.

On Windows, BAKA fits the category of command-line torrent software distributed as a native standalone tool. Its open-source license allows the product to be used as open-source software rather than as a proprietary application. MirrorNest mirrors the official BAKA build directly on its own storage. The mirrored build is scanned for malware before it is published for download.
