Libfetch supports FTP uploads (no HTTP uploads yet, I'm afraid, but
it's on the todo-list). It should be trivial to write a small app
which uploads stdin to a specified URL. The following should work
(modulo error checking):
#include <stdio.h>
#include <fetch.h>
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
FILE *f;
int c;
f = fetchPutURL(argv[1], NULL);
while ((c = fgetc(stdin)) != EOF)
fputc(c, f);
return 0;
}
Needless to say, this works with file: URLs as well.
