qft

QFT is a small command line application for Quick Peer-To-Peer UDP file transfer.

Usage:

  • Find a public QFT helper (for example tudbut.de:4277)
  • On the sender PC, enter qft sender <helper> <shared-phrase> <filename>.
  • On the receiver PC, enter qft receiver <helper> <shared-phrase> <filename>.
  • Both PCs should start transferring after a short while. If they don't, try again.

Tips 'n Tricks

  • You can add a number to the end of both of your commands (after the filename) to boost transfer speeds (higher = faster), but a too large number might cause unreliability due to local network conditions or VPNs.
  • To use qfts and qftr aliases on linux or mac, run: run this:
echo 'alias qftr="qft receiver tudbut.de:4277"' >> ~/.${SHELL}rc
echo 'alias qfts="qft sender tudbut.de:4277"' >> ~/.${SHELL}rc

Troubleshooting

It constantly says CONNECTING

One of your ends didn't correctly connect to the helper. Stop the transfer on both ends and try again.
