Originally created by @soulofmischief on GitHub.

The minified script offered on https://transfer.sh should have printf "\n"; appended to the end of the function, so that the next bash prompt is on a new line and not the same line as the returned URL.

@soulofmischief can you please refer to the file and line of code that has to be changed from the frontend repo: https://github.com/dutchcoders/transfer.sh-web/tree/master/src?

I guess it is somewhere here: https://github.com/dutchcoders/transfer.sh-web/blob/master/src/index.html

@JustAnotherArchivist Did you see the example alias/function for the linux terminal? That would essentially be what you want for manual usage. Please correct me if there is any other manual way that wouldnt work with that?

We could simply handle this with an additional header.
The usages that i know of, prefer the current version, for ease of automation.

This would certainly be useful for manual terminal usage with e.g. curl. I've long had a little script that essentially does curl --upload-file ...; echo for this reason. However, the lack of a newline is great for automation as you'd otherwise have to strip it again to get the actual URL.

@stefanbenten Yeah, I'm aware of that. I originally wrote my script to work around percent-encoding bugs (#213 and #215) and still use it to sed 's,%40,@,g' because I prefer having the at sign in unencoded form. It also prints the deletion URL to stderr whereas it's normally silently swallowed.
