NAME
pastebinit - command-line pastebin client
SYNOPSIS
pastebinit [-abfhiljmrtup]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the pastebinit commands
pastebinit reads text and sends it to a "pastebin" on the internet, returning the URL to the user.
It allows the text to be passed through a pipe (|) or from a file passed as an argument.
OPTIONS
Optional arguments (not supported by all pastebins)
-a [author] (default: $USER)
-b [pastebin url] (default is distro-specific with a fallback to pastebin.com)

-l List all the supported pastebins

-u [username] (default: none)
-p [password] (default: none)
CONFIGURATION FILE
