-# Brutally simple pastebin
+# Simple pastebin
-Decided to challenge myself to write a really simple pastebin in go, utilizing
-almost nothing but the standard library in less than an hour.
+Very much a work in progress.
-This is the result of about an hour and a half of work.
+There's a simple server and client.
-It will create a binary with embedded templates. Simply point it at the
-directory in which you'd like to store your pastes.
+The server does require authorization and has some minimal documentation
+when you fire it up.
-Each paste is a file, a random id assigned at creation. There's no way to edit
-or change a paste. The only way to delete it is to remove it from the
-filesystem.
-
-There's no indexing function or search either.
-
-There's also absolutely no protection against people spamming the API until
-your disk is full, no authentication either.
-
-If you have go already installed and properly configured on your system and
-would like to mess with it:
-
-```
-go get riedstra.dev/mitch/bpaste
-```
-
-Will install it.
+The client require a configuration file in your home folder and outputs
+the URL to the paste if successful.
