Pipe data using standard streams

[k80w]

It would be very useful if croc could send data directly from stdin and receive to stdout

@dnaf It's now possible to pipe with stdin/stdout.

You can send with stdin using:

echo "hello, world" | croc --send stdin --code 1-my-secret-code

And receive through stdout using:

croc --stdout --yes --code 1-my-secret-code > out

The --yes is not necessary, but it is useful because otherwise you'll be prompted about whether you want to save the file. Also if you don't include the code you'll have to enter the prompt for that too.

Couldn't we tease if there is data being sent via stdin and omit the --send stdin?

[schollz]

@sabhiram I didn't think about that - there is a way!

Fixed now with 1c05c35. Syntax is now:

echo "hello, world" | croc --code 1-my-secret-code

And receive through stdout using:

croc --stdout --yes --code 1-my-secret-code > out
