About

Transfero is a program the purpose of which to unite MTP FUSE filesystems
such as go-mtpfs, jmtpfs, mtpfs into one place and use it with friendly GUI interface.
The program allows you to transfer files between android devices and your local linux machine
via USB by using one or more FUSE filesystems at the same time. The GUI implementation almost
entirely relies on the next works:

Requirements

In order for the program to work properly you need to install mtp-tools and PyQt5. You can do that
by executing the next command:

sudo apt-get install mtp-tools

To install PyQt5

sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5

Note: For correct work, the program also requires libmtp to be installed but since mtp-tools
already contains this library it's not necessary to install it apart

If you want to use go-mtpfs

You need to install the Go compiler and go-mtpfs itself

To install the Go compiler

sudo apt-get install golang-go

To install go-mtpfs

sudo apt-get install go-mtpfs

If you want to use jmtpfs

You need to install jmtpfs

To install jmtpfs

sudo apt-get install jmtpfs

If you want to use mtpfs

You need to install mtpfs

To install mtpfs

Note: You should install all these libraries. If one of them doesn't work you can always use another one
