# aria-control-file-parser

parse aria2c control file from cmd line.

I just find someone, also find a way to convert .aria2 file to magnet link.

just see this issue(https://github.com/aria2/aria2/issues/792).

read the aria technical notes, the .aria2 (Control File) contain the hash info of
the magnet link, so just parse the file.

also @alphatr write a tool transform .aria2 file to a magnet link use javascript.
