About:
trzsz is a command-line file transfer tool designed as a modern alternative to lrzsz (rz/sz). It enables seamless uploading and downloading of files and directories between local and remote machines over standard input/output streams. Its key advantage is full compatibility with tmux sessions, allowing reliable transfers even within complex terminal multiplexer environments.
Key Features:
  • Compatible with lrzsz (rz/sz) commands
  • Supports transferring entire directories recursively
  • Works seamlessly inside tmux sessions
  • Binary-safe file transfer protocol
  • Progress indicator during file transfer
Use Cases:
  • Transferring files to/from remote servers via SSH
  • Uploading code or data to a cloud VM
  • Sharing files in tmux sessions where other methods fail
  • Automating file transfers in shell scripts
Alternatives:
  • lrzsz – trzsz is a modern replacement with better performance and tmux support.
  • scp – Requires SSH access; trzsz works over any interactive shell session.
  • sftp – Requires a dedicated SFTP server; trzsz works over standard terminals.
