fileio

#!/usr/bin/env bash

# Examples:
#     fileio hello.txt               # paste file (name/ext will be set).
#     echo Hello world. | fileio     # read from STDIN (won't set name/ext).
#     fileio -n 1d self_destruct.txt # paste will be deleted after one day, downloaded or not.
#                                    # can set \d(d|w|m|y) for weeks, months, years.
