# brisket

`brisket` is a primitive newsreader script, capable of fetching posts and
posting to NNTP servers. It's dead simple and lacks any sort of fancy TUI,
opting instead for an interface inspired by the Unix philosophy: posts are read
from stdin, and are written either to stdout or to text files in a directory.

## Installation

`brisket` is self-contained and depends only on Hy core and the Python standard
library. Provided that both Hy and Python are installed, you should be able to
invoke `brisket` in the following ways.

```sh
chmod u+x brisket.hy

# Install globally.
cp brisket.hy /usr/local/bin/brisket

# Or

# I'd rather just run it from the repository.
./brisket.hy
```

## Usage

## Why the name?

I couldn't come up with a better name, and there's little in the world that
makes me happier than a smoked brisket.
