Usage: anypaste [-ifh] [-p plugin] [-c config_file_path] [file1 [file2 ...]]

Upload `file`s or stdin to an automatically selected hosting sites.
You can specify `-` as a file to read from stdin. If no files are
listed, it will automatically attempt to use stdin.

OPTIONS:

 -i          Enable interactive mode. Will prompt for important options.
             Combining this with options intended for non-interactive
             use (e.g, -p) has undefined behavior. If you are reading
             your file from stdin, -i might not work properly.
 -p          Specify a plugin instead of automatic selection. Uses fuzzy
             matching (e.g, `gfy` search will match `gfycat` plugin).
             Only searches compatible plugins by default.
 -f          Do not check plugin compatibility. Without -p, it uses the
             first listed plugin in the config file. Primary meant for
             use with -p
 -x          If plugin specified using -p or interactive mode is the
             exact name of an executable, it will be used, even if it is
             not listed in the configuration file.
 -c          Use the specified configuration file instead of the default
             one located at $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/anypaste.conf
