# Haste
2011-11-23 23:11:55 +01:00
Sharing code is a good thing, and it should be _really_ easy to do it.
A lot of times, I want to show you something I'm seeing - and that's where we
use pastebins.
2011-11-22 15:22:37 +01:00
Haste is the prettiest, easiest to use pastebin ever made.

## Basic Usage
Type what you want me to see, click "Save", and then copy the URL. Send that
URL to someone and they'll see what you see.

To make a new entry, click "New" (or type 'control + n')

## From the Console
Most of the time I want to show you some text, its coming from my current
console session. We should make it really easy to take code from the console
and send it to people.

`cat something | haste` # http://hastebin.com/1238193
You can even take this a step further, and cut out the last step of copying the
URL with:
2011-11-22 15:53:02 +01:00
2011-11-30 02:23:30 +01:00
* osx: `cat something | haste | pbcopy`
* linux: `cat something | haste | xsel`
2011-11-22 15:53:02 +01:00
After running that, the STDOUT output of `cat something` will show up at a URL
which has been conveniently copied to your clipboard.
2011-11-22 15:53:02 +01:00
That's all there is to that, and you can install it with `gem install haste`
right now.
* osx: you will need to have an up to date version of Xcode
* linux: you will need to have rubygems and ruby-devel installed

## Duration
Pastes will stay for 30 days from their last view.
## Privacy
While the contents of hastebin.com are not directly crawled by any search robot
that obeys "robots.txt", there should be no great expectation of privacy. Post
things at your own risk. Not responsible for any loss of data or removed
pastes.
