diff c1edf992f9 Make sure all requests are complete before shutting down. 
Missed a spot in the net/http docs. Calling Server.Shutdown() causes
ListenAndServe to return *immediately*, and when it does main() exits and
the "Upload Success" message gets cut off before it can be fully sent, which
spooks HTTP clients a bit.

To avoid that, you have to wait for the call to Server.Shutdown() to return,
and then signal back to main() that it's now safe to exit.

README.md

Ruff provides a pop-up web server to Retrieve/Upload Files Fast over LAN, inspired by WOOF (Web Offer One File) by Simon Budig.

It's based on the idea that not every device has , but just about every device that can network has an HTTP client, making a hyper-simple HTTP server a viable option for file transfer with zero notice or setup as long as somebody has a copy of RUFF.

Why create RUFF when WOOF exists? WOOF is no longer in the debian repos and it's easier to go get a tool than it is to hunt down Simon's website for the latest copy.

Installation

go get git.tilde.town/diff/ruff

Usage

Assuming $GOPATH is in $PATH:

ruff "cool thing.jpg" # to send a cool file

and

ruff -u # to receive a cool file
