Thank you! This is the most useful application of GPT to my usage.

Only one day of usage but it helped me create multiple convenience shell scripts I just haven't gotten into doing. Such as the ones below. They're basic stuff but Bash syntax is just so awkward. It won't stick no matter how many scripts I write!

This is companion script for glow, to be able to stash README files directly from GitHub links. glow can only do this for local files by itself.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
#
# glowstash - Stash GitHub README files to glow directly from URL's.

  cat << EOF
  Downloads a GitHub repository README.md and store it in glow's stash. By default,
  the script use the repository name as the memo for the downloaded README.md. This
  can be overridden with the '-m' flag. The repository can be given as URL to the
  repository homepage or in "username/repo" format.

Usage:
  glstash [REPO_URL] [flags]

Examples:
  glowstash -m "Glow" https://github.com/charmbracelet/glow
  glowstash https://github.com/charmbracelet/glow
  glowstash charmbracelet/glow

Flags:
  -h, --help          help for glstash
  -m, --memo string   memo/note for stashing
