swap out KEY and TOKEN and any lists from your own boards you would like to use and put this in your /usr/local/bin or anything in your $PATH variable (for instance, I have ~/bin in mine, so I saved this as ~/bin/trello). forked from

trello.sh

#!/bin/bash

if [ $# -ne 2 ]
then
	echo "Usage is: $0: <shorthand> \"<title>\"";
	echo "For example: trello misc 'Do this and that'";
	echo -e "\033[1m"; #bold header row
	echo "| Shorthand	| Board 	| List";
	echo -ne "\033[0m";
	echo "----------------------------------------"; #separate header row from table
	echo "| misc 		| Someday	| Misc";
	echo "| in  		| INbasket 	| APIed in?";
	echo "| tabs		| INbasket 	| Tabs";
#	echo "| misc 		| 	| ";
