On the target: paste into a new file with. b64 will be created in the other panel - open it ( F3) and copy the contents ( Ctr+ a, Ctr+ c). On the source: select your file and then pick Files > Encode file. If you don't have Python or if both your machines are running Windows and you have Total Commander installed then the steps are simpler: These snippets can be extracted to scripts in order to avoid typing every time. Then on the target machine paste the contents into a new file named myfile.txt and in a console type: data = open('myfile.txt').read().decode('base64') Next, open the file myfile.txt with a text editor and copy the contents. On the target: paste the data to a text file and decode it with any available decoder.įirst, on the source machine fire up a Python console and type: base64data = open('myfile.jpg','rb').read().encode('base64').On the source: use any available encoder to convert the file to Base64/UUEncode so you can copy the data with Ctr+C.
This is kind of a joke answer but since copy and paste is supported between the target and the host, the geeky way to copy a file without resorting to intermediate cloud storage would be to:
