I kid you not, I was actually looking for a solution like that yesterday! hopefully it'll handle a few tens of gigabytes between my two Linux laptops.

This is one file at a time. It's designed more for very quick "Oops I need that photo" sort of stuff.

What you want to do is better served by NFS, SMB or SFTP.

It does actually support several files, folders, or anything.
