Yandex.Anthroponym client

Yandex.Anthroponym is a web service which translates names from English to Russian and vice versa. This is a little script (designed for TextExpander, but works fine in a shell) which gets the current Mac OS X clipboard content, translates it and prints back the output.

So you have copied "Ray William Johnson", for example. Type the abbreviation you've defined in TextExpander and "Рей Вильям Джонсон" will be pasted.

If you don't have PyPy (you should, it's really fast), change the first line to "#!/usr/bin/env python". Don't forget to pip install requests. And, of course, to set snippet type to "Shell Script" when adding to TextExpander.
