What is PasteIt?

PasteIt is here to help you collaborate on debugging code snippets. If you're not familiar with the idea, most people use it like this:

• submit a code fragment to pasteit, getting a url like http://www.pasteit.in/1234
• paste the url into an IRC or IM conversation
• someone responds by reading and perhaps submitting a modification of your code
• you then view the modification, maybe using the built in diff tool to help locate the changes

How can I view the differences between two posts?

When you view a post, you have the opportunity of editing the text - this creates a new post, but when you view it, you'll be given a 'diff' link which allows you to compare the changes between the old and the new version

This is a powerful feature, great for seeing exactly what lines someone changed

How can I delete a post?

If you clicked the "remember me" checkbox when posting, you will be able to delete post from the same computer you posted from - simply view the post and click the "delete post" link.

In other cases, contact us and we will delete it for you

And this is all free?

It will always be free, our hosting and maintenance costs are paid for through advertising.
