Hi Ralph, Neat trick with ix.io; I hadn't met that before. A pastebin for one-liners! I was puzzled to see the '&' in your command above. I'd have thought that saying (yada yada) | curl -sSF 'f:1=<-' ix.io would do the trick, and that adding the ampersand would, if anything, cause it to break: "pipe this lot to nothing, and while you're about it run this curl with no stdin". Obviously I'm mistaken, but I don't know why: can you enlighten?
