linux manual import

So I installed this on my RPI3 running raspbian (jessie), and only sometimes I get this error:

2016/08/05 21:24:05 [OK!] Compression detection complete
2016/08/05 21:24:05 [ERR] My bad! I tried to start uncompressing your archive but failed.
2016/08/05 21:24:05 Try checking the file, or send me the file so I can check it out.

Is there a way to manually import via CLi like how windows you can 'drag & drop' into the executable as stated in your wiki?

webgui gives an api error if I link it there.

What windows does when you drag a file onto an executable is call the executable with the file as the first argument, so it should do exactly the same thing. You should probably check the file to see if it decompresses fine, or manually decompress the file and import that instead.

I think @stephen304 missed this one you should do ./bitcannon_whatever backup.txt is what should happen
