roof

A minimalist, fast and reliable utility to share files.

About

Roof has two main modes of functionality. These are the serve mode and the download mode.

The serve mode can be used to serve a file. If a directory is specified, a compressed tar of that directory is served. It allows to customize the IP/port, and how many times this file can be shared. Furthermore, it has an option to offer itself, so the pair can download it and send you something back.

The download mode can be used to obtain a file from a remote pair.
