### Binary for each subcommand: `ffput`, `ffget`
`ffsend` supports having a separate binary for a single subcommand, such as
having `ffput` and `ffget` just for uploading and downloading through `ffsend`.
This allows simple commands like:
`ffsend` supports having a separate binaries for a single subcommands, such as
having `ffput` and `ffget` just for to upload and download using `ffsend`.
This allows simple and direct commands like:
```bash
ffput my-file.txt
ffget https://send.firefox.com/#sample-share-url
```
This works for a predefined list of binary names:
* `ffput` -> `ffsend upload ...`
* `ffget` -> `ffsend download ...`
* `ffdel` -> `ffsend delete ...`
* `ffput` → `ffsend upload ...`
* `ffget` → `ffsend download ...`
* `ffdel` → `ffsend delete ...`
* _This list is defined in [`src/config.rs`](./src/config.rs) as `INFER_COMMANDS`_
Symbolic or hard links may be created having these names for this functionality
(similar to [`busybox`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BusyBox#Single_binary)),

On Linux and macOS you can use the following commands for setting up these
symbolic links in the current directory:
You can use the following methods to set up these single-command binaries:
* Create a properly named symbolic link (recommended)
* Create a properly named hard link
* Clone the `ffsend` binary, and rename it
On Linux and macOS you can use the following command to set up symbolic links in
the current directory:
```bash
ln -s $(which ffsend) ./ffput
ln -s $(which ffsend) ./ffget
