These days, the QR Code has become one of the most ubiquitous ways of sharing url's. While there are a lot of free online tools to create them, most use some form of url redirection in their implementation. This is simply a quick command line tool that automates the process without any external dependencies or trackers.

In order to use this, it requires just a single parameter, a url, it then generates a QR.png file in the working directory. The output path, and the file name can be overridden via the command line as well.

--url, --path and --name are the overrides.
