/emacs-pastebin

emacs plugin for pasting to pastebin.com

Primary LanguageEmacs Lisp

Unmantained

I wrote this code long time ago, when I was still using emacs and pastebin, I left it here so it could be useful to others as it was to me. At that time I didn't know how to secure password storage so I placed a big notice that this is not safe. Well, this is not the case anymore. @cnsunyour did a nice work by fixing the unsafe password storage, I strongly recommend that you use it's fork instead,

Emacs Pastebin Interface

This is a huge inteface to pastebin.com. With it you can

  • Paste buffers
  • Fetch pastes
  • Delete pastes
  • Get a nice list of pastes
  • Sort the pastes list by data, title, private, format, key

Install

  • Unpack the repo on ~/.emacs.d/lisp, create it if needed
  • Run make to compile it (optional)
  • Put it on path on your .emacs file
  • Restart emacs
mkdir ~/.emacs.d/lisp/
cd ~/.emacs.d/lisp/
wget https://github.com/gkos/emacs-pastebin/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip 
rm master.zip
cd emacs-pastebin-master/
make

Then put this on your .emacs file:

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/lisp/emacs-pastebin-master/")
(require 'neopastebin)
(pastebin-create-login :dev-key "YOURDEVKEY"
                       :username "YOURUSER")

Restart emacs or eval .emacs again. On emacs M-x pastebin-l<TAB> <RET>. Type password. Save password in disk, it will be saved in clear text at ~/.emacs.d/pastebin-data/pass or whatever you set to pastebin-data-dir. If you really care, you can setup this variable to an encrypted partition. :P

You should see a nice list of pastes on your screen right now.
