Originally created by @ochaton on GitHub.

transfer.sh is wonderfully convenient to use as simple private file hosting to move files from server to server.
Usually, file is uploaded using curl, ex: curl -T </path/to/file> <transfer_sh_endpoint> but created link is returned without newline, so it is not easy to copy.

Many users, I suppose, add extra flags curl -T </path/to/file> -w '\n' <transfer_sh_endpoint> but it is not comfortable.

Is it okey, to add newline to the response?

indeed it's easy with

curl -T </path/to/file> <transfer_sh_endpoint> | pbcopy

(that's for mac, there are equivalente on other platform)

hello @ochaton , long time discussed: we won't make any change on the backend.
there's plenty of options for users to add the newline on the client side, sorry :)
