Just a quick note that I have made few changes based on the feedback I have received. First you can install 'gist' using 'pip install python-gist', which should make it easier to install and alleviate some of the confusion with the existing package on pypi. Also, I have added fuzzy search to the tab-completion to make it easier to select gists.
This is the best gist management tool I've ever seen, and AFAIK the only one with a `gist edit` that lets you quickly edit your gists directly from your command line.
The version on pypi seems to be out of date (v0.0.8), and doesn't work:
$ gist help
$
That is a different package of the same name.
I would be happier if there was a command to edit gists.
Sounds like a good idea. I'll add that as a feature request :)
I have just pushed the feature. I hope that works for you, but let me know if it doesn't and I will see what I can do :)
