NAME

       netwrite - write data transported over network for reading using netread

SYNOPSIS

       netwrite  [udp]  [-f host ] [-c] [-C algorithm ] [-o file ] [-s] [-b] [-h <n> ] [-H] <n> ]
       [-q] [-v] [-vv] [-V] [-vV]

       netwrite is part of the netrw package. It is a simple (but powerful) tool for transporting
       data over the internet, in conjunction with netread(1)

DESCRIPTION

       The  main  purpose of netrw is to simplify and speed up file transfers to hosts without an
       FTP server. It can also be used for uploading data to some other  user.  It  is  something
       like  one-way  netcat  (nc)  with  some nice features concerning data transfers. Netrw can
       compute and check message digest (MD5, SHA-1, and some  others)  of  all  the  data  being
       transferred,  it  can  also print information on progress and average speed. At the end it
       sums up the transfer.

OPTIONS

       udp    Changes the default TCP protocol can be changed to UDP.

       -f host
              Works in the firewall mode; connection is initiated by netwrite.

       -c     This option is ignored. Transmission checksum is activated by default.

       -C algorithm
              Uses the specified algorithm for checksum. This option also implies -c
               . Supported algorithms (the first is default): sha1 md5 rmd160 none

       -o <file>
              Writes data to file instead of stdout.

       -s     In case -o option is specified, open the file for synchronous I/O. Otherwise,  this
              option has no effect.

       -b     print speed in b/s instead of B/s

       -h <n> Prints `#' after each n KiB transferred (def. 10485.76).

       -H <n> Prints `#' after each n MiB transferred (def. 10.24).

       -q     Be quiet.

       -v     Be verbose.

       -vv    Be very verbose.

       -V     Show version.

       -vV    Show verbose version.

RETURN VALUES

       0      no errors.

       1      some error occured.

       2      checksum validation failed.
