I did a little RTFM, and found out that it's written in python, which
is scripts, and I found out what that "Error connecting to tracker"
is - I have a dynamic IP so I have to find somebody else's tracker
to use.

Any suggestions as to how I do that?

(although the way they're coming in by ftp, I'll probably have the
whole set by tomorrow morning.)
