echo "Hello World" | noscl publish

Isn't that how it should work if you adopt the Unix philosophy? Or am I making a mistake?

stdin should be assumed as default if no string is passed.

Stupid example:

Let's say I want to post my uptime.
$ uptime | noscl publish

You can do this in the current version by passing - as the content. Not sure I'd have done it that way, but it works:

$ uptime | noscl publish -

This did NOT work for me:

echo "issue #54" | noscl publish -

It published a dash.

I also just tried noscl publish - and it didn't read from standard input either, just published a dash again. But, I found the code so this should be working:

noscl/publish.go

Line 59 in a6aeb03

if content == "-" {

I must be missing something... I installed via go install github.com/fiatjaf/noscl@latest

@latest doesn't get you HEAD on this project. You have to check it out and compile it from the clone. If you do, you get:

$ Usage:

which still doesn't mention the -, but it should work. For some reason, docopt cuts off the last line in the USAGE message. In fact, the entire help text output is wonky. I'm not a developer on this project; don't ask me why it's behaving this way. I've used docopt myself in the past and not had issues with it, but I didn't have the bandwidth to dig into the behavior in this project. In any case, clone and go install from the directory, and you should get the feature.
