transfersh: Upload a file showing a progress bar (requires Python package `requests_toolbelt`).
$ transfersh --progress ${filename}
try on your machine

The command transfersh --progress ${filename} is a command-line command that initiates the transfer of a file using the "transfersh" tool, while displaying the progress of the transfer.

Here's a breakdown of the components:

  • transfersh: It refers to the "transfersh" command-line tool. Transfersh is a file sharing service that allows users to easily upload and share files with others.

  • --progress: This option is used to enable the display of the transfer progress. With this option enabled, you can see the percentage progress, transfer speed, and estimated time remaining as the file is being uploaded or downloaded.

  • ${filename}: It represents a variable that should be replaced with the specific filename or path of the file you want to transfer. For example, if your file is called "example.txt," you would replace ${filename} with example.txt, so the command becomes: transfersh --progress example.txt. This specifies the file being uploaded or downloaded using the transfersh tool.

Overall, the transfersh --progress ${filename} command is used to transfer a file using transfersh while getting real-time progress updates during the transfer process.
