Right now, we can specify the output dir using output, but I want to be able to specify the file name.
The quickest way to implement this would be something like a output-file option or filename option.
But my further suggestion is to use --output to specify the file name, and --output-dir to specify the directory instead.
Even though this might be backwards incompatible, it follows the flag format of other CLI tools.
In addition, I 'd like the option to dump the file content into stdout by using --output -.
My main use case is that usually I have a link on my phone that I wish to transfer to my computer.
I don't need the link as a file, I only need it into my clipboard manager, so with this option, I can use qrcp receive --output - | clipboard_manager.
If this sounds ok, I can create a PR that adds this feature.
