I made a small shell script in about 10 minutes that simplifies making QR
codes with qrencode, available in Trisquel's repos. I place it into the
public domain with CC0.
Enter sudo apt-get install qrencode into the terminal to install qrencode, if
it hasn't been installed already.
Type chmod +x [filename here] to make the script executable.
To run the script, type ./[filename here] while in the same folder as the
script.
#!/bin/bash
# This is an easy-to-use front end for qrencode, a QR code generator.
# qrencode must be installed for this script to work.
#
# To the extent possible under law, I waive all copyright and related or
# neighboring rights to this script. For more information see

echo "Enter text for QR code:"
read STRING
echo "Enter name of file:"
read NAME
qrencode -o $NAME $STRING
exit 0;
