### Pastebin clients

Pastebin services are often used to paste information into IRC channels to help with troubleshooting. There are services for both text (e.g. sprunge.org, pastie.org, codepad.org) and images (e.g. imgur.com, picpaste.com). Pastebin clients allow you to post directy from the cli without using a web browser.

Tip: The sprunge pastebin can be accessed directly via curl:

    <command> | curl -F 'sprunge=<-' http://sprunge.us

There is also a sprunge plugin for oh-my-zsh (a configuration tool for the Zsh command shell).
