sky - a convenient uploading interface

Say you want to upload an Ogg Vorbis file to your web hosting, for other people to download, then you do:

shlomif@telaviv1:~$ sky up /home/music/Music/mp3s/Thierry\ de\ Massia/Elements\ essentiels/01\ -\ Le\ vent.ogg
X11 forwarding request failed on channel 0

shlomif@telaviv1:~$

(up is short for “upload”)

Then you can use the URL: http://www.shlomifish.org/Files/files/music/mp3-ogg/01%20-%20Le%20vent.ogg to download it.
