I usually hang around somewhere, and someone shows a cool app or movie I want to get, as soon as I arrive home So for remotely downloading via bittorrent, i use these steps:

1) ssh to my mac box with any console application
2) type “cd /Downloads”
3) type “wget http://the.torrent.file.i.want.to.download/file.torrent”
4) type “open /Applications/Bittorrent.App &”

if Bittorrent.App is running, it just simply adds the file to it, and starts the download.
