Foxit iPad uploader

Get it here

I just found myself in the position of wanting to upload about twenty PDFs to an iPad via Foxit's http interface utility. As amazingly useful as this feature is it still only allows for one upload at a time.
Being a lazy bastard I thought I would automate this process.

The result is a tiny bash script that uses curl to submit files. It takes the URL (including port) of the iPad Foxit server and a list of pdfs to send.

I used it like so:
foxitUploader http://192.168.0.5:8888 nat??.pdf


The source is on Bitbucket as usual.
