A simple command line tool to transfer files with HTTP

Usage: ncp [OPTIONS] [FILES]...

Arguments:
  [FILES]...  The files to be sent, empty means serve as receiver

Options:
  -l, --host <HOST>         The host ip for the server
  -p, --port <PORT>         The port for the server
  -k, --key <STRING>        The secret key for the server
  -r, --reserve             Whether reserve the full path of the received file
  -x, --proxy <PROXY>       Proxy for TCP connection
  -X, --no-proxy            Disable automatically check proxy from gateway
  -m, --mode <MODE>         Serve mode [possible values: normal, proxy]
  -a, --auto-rename         Auto rename file if exist
  -s, --prompt-save-config  Whether show save config prompt
  -h, --help                Print help
  -V, --version             Print version

The options will first parse from command line, then from environment variables (env), finally from config file.

The env name is NCP_<UPPER_CASE_OF_OPTION>, e.g. NCP_KEY, NCP_AUTO_RENAME.

The config file path may be ~/.config/ncp.toml or /etc/ncp.toml (Unix-like), %APPDATA%\ncp.toml (Windows), the first has higher priority.
