# bwlcat
## Introduction

A small cat like program with a bandwidth limit.

This program sends every period T N bytes.

This is useful for transfering large files over slow links without causing
a congestion.

## Usage

```
bwlcat [-h] [-b <bytes>] [-t <time>] [<files>]

  -h: Help
  -b <bytes>: Sent each time N Bytes
  -h <time>: Wait T seconds after each packet

```

## Example
### Simple example

```bash
bwlcat -b 8 -t 2 /etc/hosts
```

Sent's /etc/hosts with a speed of 4 bytes a second.

### Usage to transfer a file over ssh
```bash
ssh remote bwlcat -b 1400 -t 1.5 /bin/bash >/tmp/bash
```

Sent over bash with 1KB/sec.
