local args = {...}
local sides = {"top","bottom","back","front","left","right"}
for i=1,#sides do
if not rednet.isOpen(sides[i]) then
  rednet.open(sides[i])
end
end
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
term.clear()
if #args < 1 then
print("Usage (<> required, [] optional):")
print("sendfile [ComputerID] <file>")
return
end

if #args == 1 then
if fs.exists(args[1]) then
textutils.slowPrint("Sending file "..args[1].."!")
rednet.broadcast("RECEIVE")
rednet.broadcast(args[1])
file = fs.open(args[1], "r")
rednet.broadcast(file.readAll())
file.close()
else
print(args[1].." does not exist!")
return
end
else
if fs.exists(args[2]) then
textutils.slowPrint("Sending file "..args[2].." to "..args[1])
F = fs.open(args[2])
id = tonumber(args[1])
rednet.send(id, "RECEIVE")
rednet.send(id, args[2])
rednet.send(id, F.readAll())
F.close()
else
print(args[2].." does not exist!")
return
end
end

Usage:

ReceiveFile:

Just type this then you can send the files!

SendFile [ComputerID] <File>:

"[ComputerID]" is completly optional but is used to send the file to a specific computer.

"<File>" is the file you want to send, and is manditory (of course).

local sides = {"left","right","top","bottom","back","front"}

I've found that if you did this it would require a modem on all sides i am a bran new coder to CC but if you remove all of them except for one side it would work fine, Also if i tried to send a file to a computer i get
sendfile:31:31 Expected string, string
Could you possibly fix that i have tried myself but like i said new coder.

This should be on line 31


F = fs.open(args[2],"r")

Something like:


print("Side: arg 1, file: arg 2")
local args = {...}
local m = peripheral.wrap(args[1]) or error("Error! Wrong side!")
m.broadcast(fs.open(args[2]).readAll() or error("Error while reading file!"))

Note: untested, written in browser :P/>

Why don't you open the modems like this?


for _,side in pairs(rs.getSides()) do
   if peripheral.getType(side) == "modem" then
     rednet.open(side)
end
  end
