Thanks for the feedback. Only an address is needed to be specified. There is a default port built into the source code. But, I believe in the near future I will add some kind of algorithm to extract IP addresses from phrases.

aft designs to be configurable, but I do believe your comment is right and something about it in the docs should be added. There is also a config file in this program, with a default `mode` property. It's not really used right now, but very soon it will be.

I never want to have to configure a file transfer program. For this to be useful to me, it has to be better than magic wormhole.
The only configuration you will do is choosing the mode you're gonna use (I don't even think it counts as configuration). There are a few modes, and as I said at the comment above, very soon you could choose the default mode.

Also, its OK not wanting to configure anything, but some people might find it useful. This program aims to include both types.
