hi there, i really like your cli torrent client, but
I type something like:
$ webtorrent download magnet:xxx --out(or -o) ~/Downloads/
none of this works and gives output like:

[1] 6897
[2] 6898
-o: command not found
[2]+  Done
... 
...
[3] 7725
[4] 7726

Command '--out' not found, did you mean:

  command 'lout' from deb lout
  command 'gout' from deb scotch

Try: sudo apt install <deb name>
...

running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, webtorrent version 1.12.3 (0.100.0)

Hey @nemyxa,

I have just created a fresh install of Ubuntu 18.04 with NodeJS v8.10.0 and WebTorrent v1.12.3.

Using the command webtorrent download magnet:?xt=urn:btih:08ada5a7a6183aae1e09d831df6748d566095a10 -o ~/downloads/test (sintel magnetURI). I was unable to re-create the issue you're having, because of this I believe the issue is likely to do with your specific magnetURI and I'm unable help any further without it.

All the best.

@SilentBot1 i just tried your magnet link, and it works!
What's wrong with my urls? 😆

Almost all magnet links that i use is large and terrible. So there is no way to use -o with them?

Just find out that if i cut this all garbage from magnet link:
magnet:?xt=urn:**
flag -o works :)
it may be some data for gui torrent clients?
Issue can be closed, thanks

Please don't use WebTorrent for copyright infringement. And quote stuff when passing as parameter to a CLI application: webtorrent download "MAGNET..."
