Thanks for the links.

Having now seen properly laid out whole programs in Ruby the language structure is a bit clearer. I still am surprised that a modern programming language can have an obscure syntax.

Having first learnt to program in Algol 68, I find Python easiest to follow of the modern crop of languages. I've used a large number of programming and scripting languages over the years and have my favourites.

NOPASTE-IT(1)						      General Commands Manual						     NOPASTE-IT(1)

NAME
nopaste-it - Nopaste software written in Perl (cli tool). SYNOPSIS
nopaste-it DESCRIPTION
This manual page describes briefly the nopaste-it commandline parameters. BINARY PARAMETERS
This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. -h, --help Display this help and exit. -v, --version Display version and exit. -u, --url <url> Use a different nopaste URL than http://nopaste.linux-dev.org/. -n, --name Use a different author name than your UNIX username (if it is set). -l, --language <language> Set the given code language. Popular ones are for example: "C", "C++", "Diff", "Perl", "Ruby", etc. You can get the list of sup- ported languages by using the "-s / --list" option of this program. It will be plain unless nothing different is set. Note: This is case sensitive. -e, --expires <expire> Set the expire option. At the moment it only accepts: "1d", "1w" and "never". The default value is "1w". -f, --file <filename> Add the content of the given file to your paste instead of reading from STDIN. -s, --list Gets supported code languages from remote pnopaste and prints them. This option could also be mixed with "url". AUTHOR
