BitLet is a simple Java implementation of the BitTorrent protocol.
It is the library that powers BitLet.org (a BitTorrent client that runs entirely in the browser plugin, as a Java applet).
You can build the project sources using Maven, and execute a sample client by calling:
java -cp target/wetorrent-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar org.bitlet.wetorrent.Sample $1
Where $1 is a .torrent file you have on your filesystem.
You can review this annotated example for an overview on how to use the BitLet library.
