[00:18] pastebinit is pastebinit is an Ubuntu package which is the command-line equivelent of !pastebin . Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which will then report an URL which contains the output. From command-line it may be installed with: sudo apt-get install pastebinit or: sudo aptitude install pastebinit .Simple usage: command-name | pastebinit or: textfile-name > pastebinit [00:19] y/n ? [00:20] !pastebinit [00:20] Sorry, I don't know anything about pastebinit [00:20] !info pastebinit [00:20] pastebinit (source: pastebinit): command-line pastebin client. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.11.2-0ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 21 kB, installed size 344 kB [00:22] Seeker`: I could maybe shorten it a bit. [00:22] Why do you need to give both apt-get and aptitude to install? that seems silly [00:22] how about something like "automatically pastebins command output, or any other text and returns a URL. For example: command-name | pastebinit or: textfile-name > pastebinit [00:22] the command name is the package name, don't think you need to tell people that in the factoid [00:23] also, cat textfile > pastebinit "textfilename > pastebinit" won't work. [00:23] If you don't have it installed, will Ubuntu recommend it? [00:23] yeah [00:24] Flannel: I actually wanted to just point to !apt or !apt-get so they could use method of choice but that (those) factoid doesn't really help with that aspect [00:24] So, can probably skip the installation stuff, since they'll get that after they try it? [00:24] how about something like "automatically pastebins command output, or any other text, and returns a URL. For example: "command-name | pastebinit" or: "cat textfile-name > pastebinit" [00:24] I think that's brevity at the expense of clarity. [00:24] genii: if someone doesn't know how to install packages, they'll ask [00:24] (and Ubuntu will tell them) [00:25] although, I suppose we can't count on those. [00:25] Seeker`: True :) I was just taking an example from the suggestion and trying to encompass users who don't use synaptic as in their sample [00:26] I don't really think we need to worry about being that frontend agnostic. The point is to get the thing installed so they can use it. [00:26] I mean, if you explain installing the package in the factoid, then you should probably include information about pipe, and cat, and redirecting output, and what pastebin actually is [00:26] Seeker`: No, that's just silly. [00:26] Flannel: thats my point [00:26] Seeker`: Uh, no? [00:26] OK lemme try a cleanup on it. [00:27] "apt-get install pastebinit" is much different than "cat outputs the file to stdout, pipe redirects it from stdout" [00:27] Seeker`: Someone who just needs help in #u would likely benefit from the former, and not care about the latter. [00:28] s/would likely/may/ [00:28] Flannel: if they need to know about installation they will ask, there is no need to flood the channel with the potentially useless information [00:28] my point was that we shouldn't need to teach people to install stuff in a factoid when the package name is the same as the command [00:29] Seeker`: Adding twenty more characters isn't really a big deal [00:29] Seeker`: Why not? That doesn't seem to follow any logic. [00:29] pastebinit is pastebinit is the command-line equivelent of !pastebin . Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which will then report an URL which contains the output .Simple usage: command-name | pastebinit or: textfile-name > pastebinit [00:29] With above, if they try the command it will instruct them how to install [00:30] I'm just worried that after they try the command (and don't have it installed) they'll think they're done. [00:30] Flannel: if 20 characters is no big deal, then why not explain cat, and pipe [00:30] Seeker`: Because they don't provide [00:30] Seeker`: Because they don't provide *any* value to the factoid, and would take lines upon lines? [00:32] They don't help solve the "how do I pastebin" problem [00:32] pastebinit is pastebinit is the command-line equivelent of !pastebin . Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output. Simple usage: command-name | pastebinit [00:33] ? [00:33] In ubottu, darlek said: !xboxcontroller is Ubuntu troubleshooting guide for XBOX 360 controllers can be found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xbox360Controller [00:33] Hehe [00:34] I'm *not* touching that suggestion [00:34] almost !scope worthy [00:35] Current suggestion for pastebinit acceptable ? [00:38] Seeker`, Flannel , any edits or concerns for: pastebinit is pastebinit is the command-line equivelent of !pastebin . Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output. Simple usage: command-name | pastebinit [00:39] genii: fine by me [00:40] OK, added [00:41] I figure if they try the usage suggested, it will just recommend how to install it since the packagename is the program name. And it refers to the usual !pastebin for further info [02:54] please monitor/remove rocko [02:55] look at moneybagz9 [02:55] And his bot [02:55] and the command he used, specifically [02:55] i get the feeling it's a... particular... kind of bot [02:56] i'd set +r. [02:58] Anyone see why sylvanus should be banned from the flootbots there? [02:58] I would like to know why I was kicked from #ubuntu [02:58] what the [02:58] a: bug, hold on a sec [02:58] LjL: I've seen this before, actually. [02:59] no, it's not a "bug" [02:59] I'm going through mibbit.com [02:59] a proxy, apparently [02:59] a: right, hold on a sec. [02:59] LjL: a program did something its not supposed to. That's what most people consider a bug. [03:00] is it angry about my name? I find it quite funny [03:00] a: Try rejoining (you'll have to go through the proxy room again) [03:02] Flannel: indeed. i thought it was a *certain* IP which it is not. [03:02] thanks [03:03] LjL: Nah, it bans some innocent bystander, it happened to me once in the past too. I'm wondering if it some sort of odd crosstalk here. Since last time the person involved was in this channel as well. [03:04] Flannel: the bots aren't in this channel so they can't see what's happening here [03:05] Flannel: it almost certainly has something to do with one of your kicks, though, i have to see which and whyu [03:06] jpds: oh, yes please. For it to recognise jaunty in !info packagname releasename [03:39] Howdy ekimmargni, how can we help you?

I'm going to kill someone in #ubuntu soon [08:51] it's getting on my nerves on some unexplainable way [08:51] so I'm going to take a slow step backwards, now. [08:51] okey dokey [08:51] I'll put the eyes on [08:52] especially finlay might need some babysitting [08:53] I have a feeling everything he says is passed through google translate mandarin-english [08:53] and lotharn, he said he's drunk [08:53] he's toast if he doesn't stop [09:21] * Pici yawns [09:21] wake up [09:21] I just did [09:23] good [11:22] * [juliaGirl] (i=ircap8@84.122.157.250.dyn.user.ono.com): wupitixa <--PM'ed me offering 'candid webcam' [11:25] bazhang: when?
