I've experienced a handful of false positives even with UTF-8 characters and will research further. Note that Transmission's behavior of rewriting the colons to underscores isn't accounted for. I've tested the script several times with around ten thousand torrents in one Transmission 3.00 instance (I can't guarantee that everything is found, but have seen hundreds of correct detections). If the HDD is full, first you need to remove some data, while rTorrent is. Mv /tmp/torrent-references.txt.$$ ~/orphan-torrent-data.txt rTorrent is CLI (command line interface) BitTorrent client running in shell.

I suspect it might break with unusual filenames too.

I'm far from an expert at bash scripting and this is quite a slow script with a large number of torrents as searching for the substring with this method seems slow, feel free to suggest alternatives. It will also delete any files not listed in Transmission, such as the "Incomplete" directory, if you keep it in your downloads folder. I recommend running the script first to see what will be deleted before doing it. Note that the line to actually delete the files is commented out. # does it not start with an underscore (my special char for files in directory not related to transmission # does it NOT exist in the list of all torrent files Transmission-remote 127.0.0.1 -t all -files > _all_torrents.tmp # get a list of all torrents transmission-remote 2.52
Using derobert's answer I wrote a bash script to remove all files that aren't listed by transmission-remote #!/bin/bash
