So you want to move a file from a Linux computer to a Microsoft Windows computer on a network. The file’s too big for your thumb drive and Samba is, as usual, not working. What should you do? Woof can help. It’s a python script that can serve up individual files so you can access them from any computer with a web browser. Simply download Woof and run a command similar to
woof somefile.txt
This will spit out a URL that you can type into any web browser on your network to download the file. Once your file has been downloaded, Woof will exit on the host machine. But Woof isn’t limited to just that. You can allow multiple downloads and send multiple files. A good one to put in with your portable apps.
