Is there a way to create I2P Postman torrents en masse from LINUX comand line ?

Also is there a cli tool that can automatically create torrent descriptions (scraper) , codecs, resolution etc?
Any other tools for mass file sharing now that muwire is no more?

On PaT the question was largely answered, but because PaT is not citeable, I am so kind and get the answer as a translation here. But that doesn't exempt you from registering each file individually with PaT (DifTracker had a tool to do that, so you could upload tons of files from the command line at home, but the filescharig community ignored DifTracker until it gave up, too bad ...). There are plenty of tools for your other needs too, for example Emacs Org-mode can export your project to many formats, including pleasing plain text for PaT. But I guess you're looking for something else, something that magically prepares everything into bite-sized pieces for you, right?

No problem, ~mktorrent~ is the name of the program and can be used in a loop or in conjunction with ~GNU Parallel~.

If you don't understand the short sentence I recommend you to use a translator ;-)
