Description: # mkgist
        
        A small utility for making gists. When I need to share code snippets online, the formatting always ends up totally messed up when I copy-paste manually. This alleviates that.
        
        ## Setup
        
        ### With pip
        
        The easiest way to get a copy is through `pip3`:
        
            pip3 install mkgist
        
        Annoying things happen, at least on my system, without `pip3`. I'll look into it at some point.
        
        ### Manual
        
        To install dependencies, run `pip install -r requirements.txt` after installing. I don't use this within a virtual environment, but doing so would look something like this:
        
        ```
        virtualenv -p $(which python3) $HOME/virtualenv/mkgist
        source $HOME/virtualenv/mkgist/bin/activate
        ```
        
        ## Usage
        
            mkgist filenames [-d "description"] [--public] [--raw] [--nocopy]
        
        - If no filenames are entered, the contents of the gist are read from STDIN.
        - The location of the created gist is printed to stdout.
        - Gists are secret by default, but can be made public with `--public`. (Secret gists aren't indexed by search engines)
        - `--raw` returns a link to the raw hosted file, which you can then get with `curl` or `wget`. If multiple files are created with this flag, the URLs are always printed to stdout.
        - By default, the URL of the created Gist is copied to the clipboard. `--nocopy` prints the link to stdout instead, not overwriting the clipboard.
