====== Paste Selection in http://ix.io ======

This script uses curl and xsel to make Geany paste your editor selection in [[http://ix.io|http://ix.io]] and
return the URL in your clipboard.

Download the script below. You will need to ''chmod u+x geany-ix-io.sh'' to make the script executable.

Add the custom command to Geany: Edit -> Format -> Send Selection To -> Set Custom Commands -> Add

Type the name of script (geany-ix-io.sh) or optionally you can write the whole custom command here:

<code>sh -c "curl -s -F 'f:1=<-' ix.io | xsel -ib; exit 1"</code>

Both, script or one liner command, will work very well.

<file bash geany-ix-io.sh>
#!/bin/bash

# The script need be in path or you will need specify complete script path
# in Custom Commands Add box.

sel=$(< /dev/stdin);
curl -s -F "f:1=$sel" http://ix.io | xsel -ib
echo -n "$sel";
exit 1
</file>
