```

3. Run the application. The app will ask for your credentials the first the app is run.

## Examples
`gett` displays a helpful help text when run with the `-h` flag.
```
$ gett
usage: gett.py [-h] [-s share_id] [-t share_title] [-i share_id]
[-d share_id [share_id ...]] [-l] [-r file_url [file_url ...]]
[-q]
[files [files ...]]

Upload files to ge.tt via the command line
```

Command Examples -
```
$ gett # show help
$ gett file1 file2 file3 # upload files (in same share)
$ gett *.py # linux globs (upload)
$ gett *.py -s sharename # upload file in the specific share
$ gett *.py -s sharename -t title # gives the title to the new share
$ gett --list # show list of shares
$ gett -d share1 share2 share3 # deletes the shares
$ gett -r url1 url2 url 3 # deletes the file url
$ gett -q {etc} # quiet mode
$ gett -i sharename # get share info
```

To upload a file, use the -u flag. By default, `gett` will create a new share for uploading the file. Use the -s flag, alongwith a sharename to upload to an existing share
```
$ gett something.txt
