Command upload uploads files to new directory on a remote server via ssh. For each command call new randomly-named remote subdirectory is created.

Usage: upload [flags] file...
  -addr string
	ssh host:port (default "localhost:22")
  -dir string
	remote directory to upload files to (default "/tmp")
  -long
	generate long subdirectory name
  -url string
	remote url base to open after upload
  -user string
	ssh connection username (default "$USER")

Current limitations:

• only files are supported, not directories;
• ssh-agent is used for authentication.

Can be used to create basic one-person web-share service:

Consider you have a cheap VPS serving /var/www as http://example.com. Create directory /var/www/pub, then run upload on some files like this:

upload -addr my-vps:22 -dir /var/www/pub -url http://example.com/pub cats1.gif cats2.gif

This should create randomly-named directory inside /var/www/pub, upload both files into it, then print directory name to stdout (ex. /var/www/pub/a1) and open http://example.com/pub/a1 in your browser so you can check it and share (your web server is expected to show directory listings for this to work).

For OS X users such things can be integrated into UI with a little help of Automator. Run Automator and create a new Service that looks like this:

Adjust script providing your server details, save this as "Share files on web" and you'll get a nice Finder context menu:
