For those of you who have always yearned for an easy to use file transfer tool for your home network, the search may be over. Enter GorgZorg, a client/server CLI tool written in C++, with the help of QtCore and QtNetwork libs, which enables file transfer between two computers on a local network without using shares.
GorgZorg runs on Windows, Linux and BSDs.
Usage is as simple as:
# Start your Zorg server, saving files in ~/received_files
$ gorgzorg -z 192.168.10.1 -d /home/user/received_files
# Send your files/directories to the desired server. Here we use a “.tar.gz” format
$ gorgzorg -c 192.168.10.1 -g /etc/path_to_gorg -zip
And that’s it!
More information, including universal binaries for 64 bit Windows/Linux, can be found on the project’s github page.
