Hm, this happens a lot to me.
Maybe we could post long posts on
pastebin.comAnd then just embed URL to the post
[url]http://pastebin.com/mb5brvL8[/url]
There is also pastebinit application that sends the output of a command to pastebin.com
and returns URL
sudo apt-get install pastebinit
for example
lspci | pastebinit -b pastebin.com
I've used
-b pastebin.com because it defaults to
paste.ubuntu.com when used like this
lspci | pastebinit
This is distro specific. Default is
pasebin.comThis command displays the list of all supported pastebins:
pastebinit -l
There is also an option to send file contents to pastebin
pastebinit -b pastebin.com -i /path/to/the/file
The only "thing" is that pastes may expire after some time. For example pastes in pastebin.com expire after 30 days.
I'm not sure about how much time do they keep it on paste.ubuntu.com
