Lazy copy file from one terminal to the other

--

I hate doing repetitive manual work, that's why I work with computers

I always have many terminals open but with long paths, it's quite a hassle to copy from files from one to the other, so……..

I wrote a script for that, copying files between open terminals

It finds every open terminal and propose them as copy target (if more than one term is opened)

Works for mac and Linux (a bit more complicated to install on mac do to the lack of /proc )

Indeed, it also works remotely (ssh)
