One of the very first things I do, to a new persistant home install... is install the pastebin.ca perl script - paste2pastebin.pl
It makes life alot easier to paste an error message to someone who's trying to help me out. A collaboration tool.
Once you have it installed, say in /usr/local/bin/paste2pastebin.pl you can paste a file or an error message you got somewhere straight from the clipboard.
To paste a named file:
To paste the contents of Klipper, make sure the hyphen is the last char of the cmdline, and then press shift-insert (or X's middle click. ) Ignore what Konsole shows you... it really did paste the whole thing... and then don't forget to hit Ctrl-D to end the input. You can even continue to type stuff on the bottom... after you pasted.Code:paste2pastebin.pl /path2/filename
First get...Code:paste2pastebin.pl -
http://pastebin.ca/download/paste2pastebin.pl and save it to somewhere like /usr/local/bin.
Edit: pastebin.ca gave me an error when I used wget at that url... so here is the proper link to use when trying to get the script.

You will probably also want to change it's permission to 755 and ownership to root. In a console...Now you'll also have to install a perl module, WWW/Mechanize.pm.sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/paste2pastebin.pl
sudo chown -c root:root /usr/local/bin/paste2pastebin.pl
If you haven't installed any modules before... and that is likely with Knoppix...I accepted the defaults except for the -j3 line... which is for dual cores...sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell
and I finally wound up at a perl prompt. Then
Edit:Not so fast... alot has changed since I posted this...install WWW::Mechanize
install Getopt::Long
before you install any modules... it is best to upgrade cpan itself... with
I did this as root, and selected "follow" for the dependancy option... and this time it worked. WWW::Mechanize was broken for a while... because some "test site", computers4sure.com changed their website around. Any problems you get... here is where to start looking or complainingCode:install Bundle::CPAN reload cpan o conf commit quit ... then restart it and make sure it doesn't complain. perl -MCPAN -e shell
Google Code WWW::Mechanize bug list
Now in a console
returns... Your paste URL is: http://pastebin.ca/979356lsmod | paste2pastebin.pl
Leaving a paste on a server forever is wasteful in my opinion... so
is a quickie that expires in 30 minutes.lsmod | paste2pastebin.pl --expiry="30 minutes"
Which can also be any of these options...
Expiry options:
*/Never, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes,
1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours,
1 day, 2 days, 3 days,
1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks,
1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, 5 months, 6 months,
1 year.
Since the script uses a default name of clueless... adding --name=yourname will give you an added bit of dignity.
I did it all by ading an alias in /etc/profile, but you could just edit the script itself.
alias p2pbin='paste2pastebin.pl --expiry='\''1 month'\'' --name=johnrw'
