I'm using ktorrent because it has more junk on the screen to keep
you occupied while waiting :-). One of the things it displays in the
status is very similar to other torrent clients, and I've never
seen any explanation of it. There are two boxes, one labeled
Leechers: the other labeled Seeders: Inside the boxes are numbers
like this: 5(10) or 1(1).

WHAT IN THE BLUE BLAZES DOES THAT MEAN?

Will I have to download the source to a torrent client, and decrypt
the code that prints status to find out why there are two numbers
and what the one in parens means versus the one not in parens?

Its cryptic stuff like this what causes unrest :-).
