NAME
       pastebinit - command-line pastebin client

SYNOPSIS

       pastebinit [OPTION...] [FILE...]

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 files as arguments.

OPTIONS
   General arguments
       -b [pastebin] (default is distro-specific with a fallback to bpa.st)

       -i [input file]

       -l List all supported pastebins

       -E Print the content to stdout too

       -h Print the help screen

       -v Print the version number

       -V Print verbose output to stderr

   Optional arguments (not supported by all pastebins)
       -a [author] (default: $USER)

       -t [title of paste] (default: none)

       -f [format of paste] (default: text)

       -P [private level] (default: 1)

       -e [expiry of paste] (default: none)

       -u [username] (default: none)

       -p [password] (default: none)

CONFIGURATION FILES
       If a ~/.pastebinit.xml file is found in the user's home directory, pastebinit will use it for its configuration.

       Here's an example file:

	   
	       paste.ubuntu.com
	       Stephane Graber
	       text
	       1
	       
	   

       Similarly, pastebin configuration files can be put under a ~/.pastebin.d directory to override the specific options
       of those.

       XDG config and data locations are also supported for these two.
