The example file is:

example.txt

How to reproduce

Create a torrent with a comment:

$ imdl torrent create -c "A comment" example.txt 
[1/3] 🧿 Searching `example.txt` for files…
[2/3] 🧮 Hashing pieces…
[3/3] 💾 Writing metainfo to `example.txt.torrent`…
✨✨ Done! ✨✨

Verify the torrent:

$ imdl torrent verify example.txt
[1/2] 💾 Loading metainfo from `example.txt`…
error: Failed to deserialize torrent metainfo from `example.txt`: Error: bencode encoding corrupted (Malformed number of unexpected character: Invalid token starting with 'H' at offset 0)

It works without a comment

imdl torrent verify command takes the torrent to be verified, not the contents. Try again with:

$ imdl torrent verify example.txt.torrent
