Use pastebin.com as your online clipboard

THE SCRIPTS ARE BROKEN AT THE MOMENT DUE TO CHANGE IN PASTEBIN.COM WEBSITE. I HAVE CREATED ANOTHER PASTEBIN SCRIPT USING THEIR API. FIND IT HERE:  http://babilonline.blogspot.com/2010/10/post-to-pastebin-from-command-line.html


I created the following pair of scripts to paste text files on pastebin.com from console and fetching it may be from a different computer on a different network on console. Comes really handy when you just want to share some texts on two diffrent computers. And the best thing is it lets you paste things that are blocked by pastebin ;).

CHANGE THE VARIABLE "USER" TO CREATE YOUR OWN CLIPBOARD ON PASTEBIN.
