Short description :

	BtCheck is a bittorrent downloaded data checker and a torrent file
	content viewer.


Long description :

	BtCheck is a free software written by Jean Diraison in 2008-2009.
	It is covered by version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
	Btcheck can check downloaded data integrity according to the given
	torrent and it can also show the informations stored in the torrent
	file (announce trackers, list of files with their size, torrent
	hash value, creation date, comments, ...).


Requirements :

	BtCheck can use various crypto libraries to speedup hash computation.
	  + OpenSSL crypto library           [--with-openssl]
	  + mbedTLS/PolarSSL crypto library  [--with-polarssl]
	  + GnuTLS library                   [--with-gnutls]
	  + libgcrypt library                [--with-gcrypt]
	  + tomcrypt library                 [--with-tomcrypt]
	  + Nettle library                   [--with-nettle]
	  + BeeCrypt library                 [--with-beecrypt]
	On Linux systems the Kernel Crypto API [--with-kercrypt] can be used.
	On Windows systems the CryptoAPI [--with-wincrypt] can be used too.
	By default BtCheck will use a slow built-in sha1 implementation.


Building howto :

	Use autotools to generate configure and Makefile files:

		aclocal
		autoconf
		autoheader
		automake -a -c

	Then build btcheck executable:

		./configure [--with-xxxxxxxx]
		make
		make install
