+# bin2sh
+
+This converts any file to a shell script, which outputs itself.
+
+This makes it easy to copy/paste a binary into a netcat session to
+transfer a file to another system.
+
+## Building
+```
+make
+```
+
+## Example
+```
+ % ./bin2sh Makefile
+echo -ne "\x61\x6c\x6c\x3a\x0a\x09\x67\x63\x63\x20\x2d\x6f\x20\x62\x69\x6e"
