Tool

Fed up with:
- Selecting your text
- Going to pastebin.ca website
- Paste your text
- Submit
- Copy the URL you got back
- Paste that link to IRC, or whatever ?

My script gives you the ability to copy a file's content directly from command line, and it returns the URL back to you, saving you precious steps. It will also accepts stuff from STDIN. Examples:

me@mybox#: ./paste2paste.pl myfilename.conf
Your paste URL is: http://pastebin.ca/30095
or
df -h | ./paste2paste.pl
Your paste URL is: http://pastebin.ca/30096

If the script breaks for you, it may mean the code on pastebin.ca has changed. Send me an email, and I will look at your problem. Avoid sending me emails because you have missing perl modules. Read the requirements.
