There are many BitTorrent clients out there. Each has its own unique features that make it a bit different from the others.
In this page I will give a brief review of LH-ABC and its features to ultimately make your torrenting experience better.
Targets
LH-ABC aims to the following targets:
- Be very easy to use
- Keep the interface full yet not bloated
- Automate complex tasks
- Look and feel native on all major platforms
Customizable
LH-ABC is highly customizable. You can change almost anything.
- Change the size to whatever fits your needs.
- Customize the toolbar, statusbar and context menus and add only the items you need.
- Customize the transfers list and view only the columns you need.
- Set the text of the list's column headers to whatever suits your mind the best.

- Built-in tracker
- Shutdown on idle
- Selective downloading

RSS
Take the time to find good RSS feeds, it's worth it!
With RSS feeds you can:
- View and download the latest releases of your favorite torrent sites
- Download content automatically using predefined filters
Search
Almost everybody knows BitTorrent has no build in search function. So we search the web for torrents we like. LH-ABC tries to make it simpler.
Many torrent sites allow you to view search results in XML format. LH-ABC has a build in XML based search module so you can add many torrent sites to LH-ABC and:
- Search multiple torrent sites simultaneously
- View search results in a nice, sortable, table.
- Download results directly from the application.
Templates
Templates allow you to predefine various groups of settings and apply them either manually or automatically.
- It will help you manage your incoming folder (i.e. Video, Pictures, Music ...)
- It will help you follow private trackers rules by automatically setting bandwidth and ratio limits according to the torrent source
- It will help you easily set special limits for torrents you are initially seeding.
Command Scheduler
The Command Scheduler allows you to schedule internal commands (like Stop All, Toggle RSS, Set upload limit, etc.), that will run when the date/time you set for it has come. You can also set commands to cyclically run every day or every week from a given date.
Web Interface Service
The Web Interface Service allows you to control LH-ABC from a remote computer.
