Adhost

Introducing Adhost2, a lightweight ad blocker that uses a simple shell script to set up the host file. With no bells and whistles, Adhost2 efficiently blocks unwanted ads on your system, providing a faster and smoother browsing experience. Whether you're tired of pop-ups, banners, or other pesky ads, Adhost2 has got you covered.

Here's a README file in Markdown format based on the script you provided:

How it works

Adhost2 is a script that updates the /etc/hosts file on a Linux system with a list of hosts obtained from a file or custom input. It can be used to block or redirect hosts.

Usage

Run the script with sudo privileges:

sudo ./adhost2.sh

If you want to use a custom host list, specify the file path using the -h option:

sudo ./adhost2.sh -h /path/to/custom-host-list

To uninstall Adhost2 and restore the original /etc/hosts file, run:

sudo ./adhost2.sh uninstall

Prerequisites

Linux system
Curl

Notes

The script must be run from the hosts directory (hint: from the unzip dir).
If you interrupt the script with Ctrl+C, it will restore the original /etc/hosts file.
The script must be run with sudo privileges.
The default host list is /usr/share/adhost/adhost2.sh.
