Piolet is a MANOLITO servent developed by Pablo Soto. Piolet shares the same codebase as Blubster; the name change is a result of concerns from Pablo Soto's employer, Optisoft. Piolet can share and download audio (inc. music) files, and features SHA-1 hashing, search by artist or title, filtering by bitrate, instant messaging, and voice chat.
Piolet is the French word for an ice axe used for ice climbing, which resembles a pickaxe, or pioche.
