Ruby script for posting with Hugo

hpost.rb

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

# - requires the slugify gem - `gem install slugify`
# - opens the file in your default editor as set by macOS, not your shell
# - does nothing to keep the slug length reasonable, so your film review of
# "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford" is going to have a long
# slug.
# - `hpost.rb --help`  for help on the options
