+# CIOS Torrent Creation Script
+
+This script when run will create a .torrent file and a .magnet file from all folders that are under the root source directory (SOURCE_DIR). It will also set the tracker URL as defined by (TRACKER_URL). After each file is generated, it will copy then to both the (DEST_DIR) and the (TORRENT_WATCH_DIR). The script will also do a "chown" on (TORRENT_WATCH_DIR) to 1000:1000 so that the torrent client can pick up the torrents in realtime. We assume the (DEST_DIR) is the golden copy of the torrent files and the (TORRENT_WATCH_DIR) is a working folder that is watched by your torrent client.
