Download my Pastebin API and put it in a file called "pb", with

pastebin get 5SJ0d1mV pb

. Then, put this in a file called "update" by typing

pastebin get UdtTvRxN update

. Use it like this: update <username> <password> It will download the latest version of all of your Pastebin pastes into the current directory.

If you want it to run every time your computer reboots, create a file named "startup" that just has this in it: update <your pastebin username> <your pastebin password>

Note that I hacked this together in like 5 minutes, so there's absolutely no error handling and it may not work.

You'd actually need a shell.run call, not just the string you'd directly put into the shell.

However, auto-updating from the web on every startup is a Bad Plan.

Definitely. I've got a much better system, but I kinda' stopped working on it. I'll have to finish it up and post it on the forums.
