@rbon
Thank you for testing and reviewing Torrent File Editor, this is a very useful and perhaps unique tool (I have never used a dedicated editor for torrent files). A tiny tip- one may truncate the file name (for example- torrent-file-editor-0.2.2-x64.exe to torrent-file-editor.exe) for easier handling of shortcuts when the program is updated.

Very interesting, though I'm not totally clear on why you'd need this.

This is an interesting program.
I am a curious person and when I found this program I thought it might be useful to others.
Actually I use very little the torrent files and even less this program and sometimes just to see the content of torrent files (structure and contents of folders) without launch of p2p client.

Ivan Romanov https://sourceforge.net/u/ivanromanov/profile/, Torrent File Editor author, has a profile on GitHub that is his 'working lab':
- GitHub page https://github.com/drizt: https://github.com/drizt/torrent-file-editor
- GitHub closed issues: https://github.com/drizt/torrent-file-e ... s%3Aclosed
and I think that are his solved issues from #22 to #34 (these are issue numbers).

Torrent File Editor at version 0.3.11, two new versions were releases today (2018-07-15) - 0.3.10 and 0.3.11, since the developer doesn't keep a change log one needs to browse the recently closes issues to get an idea what is new. Several screens:

Torrent File Editor version 0.3.11 - program window (static image):

Torrent File Editor version 0.3.11 - program tabs (animated image):

Torrent File Editor version 0.3.11 - context menu (static image):

Torrent File Editor is a good companion to torrent users.
