Description:
 Simple file client and server written in Python

Was missing a simple tool for downloading files
from my desktop computer to my notebook (and vice
versa) without handling with NFS or Samba, so I
created one by myself.

Usage:

On server site start the server with python
py_file_server.py When omitting a port, 50007 is
the standard port and set by the server.

On client site start the client with python
py_file_client.py Enter the IP address and the
port number and change the home directory (where
the downloaded files will be saved) as needed.

With the graphical client you can navigate thru
the server and download files to the client,
assumed the user who has started the server has
the access rights.

The client window is splitted in two halfs: on the
left site you see the files and directories on the
server, the right site shows a journal of your
actions respectively error messages from the
server.

For navigation double click on a server directory
for entering it. Press the up button for moving up
one directory level. Alternatively the directory
on the server can be entered manually. 

For downloading mark the files and press the get
files button.

py_file_client is available in english and german,
the server only in english. Language should be
automatically set depending on your locales. If it
is not EN or DE, it will be set to EN.

You must open port 50007 (or your selected port)
on your firewall. It is strongly recommended to
close this  port after you are ready.
