ServerClip is a tool for copying contents of a file over various ssh connections. Need to get a log file over to your laptop? This can help.

Hmmm... If I can ssh... I'm gonna use SCP

If I can't SCP but can port forward, I'm gonna use netcat

Maybe I'm missing something, but this seems unnecessary.

It creates an ssh tunnel and then sends the file over http, so .... literally no advantage to using this over ssh/scp.

Worse in every way, actually.

What's the advantage over sftp, scp, or similar lower level protocols?
