Picotorrent: Minor notes [feature request]

[dza89]

-Preference menu should have an option to change double click behaviour to open in file explorer.
-I'm missing the option to add a torrent automatically (as in skipping the regular add screen)
-When I delete a torrented file, picotorrent starts redownloading the file, this should not happen.

You should remove the file from PicoTorrent before removing it from disk. There is an option in PicoTorrent to remove the torrent as well as the downloaded files.

[dza89]

It's your choice in the end of course but that doesn't make any sense to me. If I, instead of delete, move a file from one place to the other without using picotorrent,, the torrentclient shouldn't decide to start to redownload the file.

[vktr]

If you move the file without telling the torrent client, there is no way of knowing if the file had bad data or similar, and so it will re-download the missing pieces.

A quick check tells me that both qBittorrent and uTorrent also works like this.

@vktr

This is how utorrent handles deleted files: (had to install the darn program to show this)
(I couldn't change language but is basically says: task misses file, please check again)

@dza89 That differs from the behavior I got. Anyway - I can take a look at how it could be done, but I don't think it is trivial.
