Bug Description
System: OS X 10.6.8
Install vector: macports
$ pastebinit -h
pastebinit v1.4.1
Reads on stdin for input or takes a list of filenames as parameters
Optional arguments (not supported by all pastebins):
-a <author:default is 'chillin'>
-b <pastebin url:default is 'http://
-f <format of paste:default is 'text'>
-h This help screen
-i <input file>
-l List all supported pastebins
-j <jabberid for notifications:
-m <permatag for all versions of a post:default is blank>
-r <parent posts ID:defaults to none>
-t <title of paste:default is blank>
-u <username> -p <password>
-v Print the version number
$ pastebinit -v
pastebinit v1.4.1
Right?
ok, so...
executing the command:
$pastebinit -a John -b http://
has the result of making a paste that is titled "John," pasted by "GUEST" rather than what the command requested, a paste titled "title_of_paste" under myusername account, authored by John. i.e. the -a argument seems to be the -t argument... but more importantly, its not pasting under my account, which was the intention (GUEST pastes cannot be edited).
Sounds like some fields having changed on pastebin.com, an updated config file would be appreciated from someone who knows what to set them to get the right result.
