<p><strong><a href="http://www.home.unix-ag.org/simon/woof.html">Woof - simply exchange files</a></strong></p> Ultra simple file sharing for local networks: run “woof filename” to start a local web server which will serve up that file, just once, and then terminate. Can also serve up an entire directory as a compressed archive. Written in Python, as a single script which you can drop in to your ~/bin. “woof -s” serves the script itself, so you can easily pass it to someone who has a file you want. <p><small></small>Via <a href="http://www.tuxradar.com/content/command-line-tricks-smart-geeks">Command line tricks for smart geeks</a></small></p> <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/cli">cli</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/filesharing">filesharing</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/python">python</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/woof">woof</a></p>
