<commit_before># AskStack

This is an experimental program that lets you compose a Stack Overflow
question in a text file and then automate the submission of it.

The reason I started this experiment is simple.  I hate filling in web
forms.  They feel retarded as well as unhealthy after you have gotten
used to using Vim and maneuvering in the Unix shell environment.  

This project is alpha and is only a proof of concept at this stage.

## Install

    gem install ask_stack

## Instructions

First you have to fire up an instance of SeleniumRC on your computer.

You can start SeleniumRC with

    ask_stack -s

This should be done in a different terminal window from the one you will
be running `ask_stack` in.  You only have to start up the Selenium
standalone server once.  You can leave this running in the background
indefinitely. 

The next step is to compose your question in a text file.
