Wow, thanks for the script. Surprising in its simplicity. I would have thought this use-case was popular enough to warrant specialized tools etc. Especially in the scientific community where they transfer large files.

It's simple enough that it's the sort of thing I type out in 30 seconds and there it is. No need for specialist tools - finding the tool, remembering how to use it, working out the right parameters ...

Easier, faster, and more flexible just to write the script. It's what I do.
