Usage
----- 

#### Upload file(s)

$ linx-client path/to/file.ext https://linx.example.com/file.ext

Options  

- ```-f file.ext``` -- Specify a desired filename (if different from the actual one)  
- ```-r``` -- Randomize filename  
- ```-e 600``` -- Time until file expires in seconds  
- ```-deletekey mysecret``` -- Specify deletion key
- ```-o``` -- Overwrite file if you have its deletion key
- ```-accesskey mykey``` -- Specify access key
- ```-c myconfig.json``` -- Use non-default config file (can be useful if using more than one linx-server instance). This option will create a config if file does not exist.
- ```-no-cb``` -- Disable automatic insertion into clipboard
- ```-selif``` -- Return selif url (direct url)

#### Upload from stdin

$ echo "hello there" | linx-client -
https://linx.example.com/random.txt

Note: you can specify the ```-f``` flag to specify a filename as such:  

$ echo "hello there" | linx-client -f hello.txt -
https://linx.example.com/hello.txt

#### Overwrite file
Assuming you have previously uploaded ```file.ext``` using linx-client (so that you have its deletion key), you can replace the file as such:

$ linx-client -o file.ext
https://linx.example.com/file.ext

#### Delete file(s)

$ linx-client -d https://linx.example.com/file.ext
Deleted https://linx.example.com/file.ext
