NAME
     selection-pastebin - automatic pastebin upload

EXAMPLES
       URxvt.keysym.C-M-e: selection-pastebin:remote-pastebin

DESCRIPTION
     This is a little rarely useful extension that uploads the selection as
     textfile to a remote site (or does other things). (The implementation is
     not currently secure for use in a multiuser environment as it writes to
     /tmp directly.).

     It listens to the "selection-pastebin:remote-pastebin" action, which, when
     activated, runs a command with "%" replaced by the name of the textfile.
     This command can be set via a resource:

	URxvt.selection-pastebin.cmd: rsync -apP % ruth:/var/www/www.ta-sa.org/files/txt/.

     And the default is likely not useful to anybody but the few people around
     here :)

     The name of the textfile is the hex encoded md5 sum of the selection, so
     the same content should lead to the same filename.

     After a successful upload the selection will be replaced by the text given
     in the "selection-pastebin-url" resource (again, the % is the placeholder
     for the filename):

	URxvt.selection-pastebin.url: http://www.ta-sa.org/files/txt/%

     Note to xrdb users: xrdb uses the C preprocessor, which might interpret the
     double "/" characters as comment start. Use "\057\057" instead, which works
     regardless of whether xrdb is used to parse the resource file or not.
