Wow this is excellent, it looks like we were inspired by the same problem and had very similar solutions. I should've known a tool like this existed somewhere, I just didn't look hard enough :). Either way I'm pretty happy with the output of node-txr even if I could've used wormhole without needing to build it.
If you do not need the features of this program, then you could just use "tar | nc" for sending and "nc | tar" for receiving, I suppose.
Is this end-to-end encrypted or can the server read all transferred data?
If you want to look for inspiration from an established tool, check out wormhole. Their UX is extremely simple.
