# pirate-get
pirate-get is a convenient command line tool (inspired by APT) to speed up your trip to the Pirate Bay and get your completely legal torrents more quickly.
Tested on Arch Linux mostly. It should work on any other Linux too. Let me know if it doesn't.
Also tested on OSX (works fine on yosemite) `--local` option hasn't been tested recently.
## Installation
Make sure you have python 3 installed.
Requires `colorama` for colored output.
Run `./install`
## Usage
See `pirate-get -h` for help.
Watch [this](http://showterm.io/d6f7a0c2a5de1da9ea317) for an example usage.
## Configuration file
You can use a file to override pirate-get's default settings.
Default is `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pirate-get`. If it does not exist then `$HOME/.config/pirate-get`.
### SaveToFile
**Currently this is the only way to save magnet urls to a file**
A config file would look something like:
```INI
[SaveToFile]
enabled = true
directory = ~/downloads/pirate-get/
```
## Notes
