GorgZorg

GorgZorg is a multiplatform network file transfer tool for the command line interface written in C++ using Qt libs.

If you are using a 64 bit Windows or 64 bit Linux system, it’s packaged in a very simple way so you do not have to install Qt libraries if you don’t want to.

GorgZorg in action. An Arco Linux computer (on the left) first automatically receives a directory containing the minitube project from a FreeBSD computer (on the right, via ssh). Later, the same Arco machine manually accepts a README.md file sent by FreeBSD.

How does it work?

GorgZorg is a client/server application that uses TCP sockets to transfer files between two computers on a local network. The server side is called the Zorg one, and it basically keeps listening for connections from the client side (Gorg, as you might have guessed). There’s no need for creating shares in NFS or SMB.

You can send (gorg) files, entire directories and specific files (*.extension). You can even tar/zip the contents before gorging (on Windows, they’ll be 7ziped).
