+mpaste
+======
+
+**mpaste** is a super minimal paste server written in Go. It supports extremely simple file uploads
+assuming you have the tools available to do so, such as ``curl(1)``. It also supports viewing pastes
+in the browser as either raw text or with syntax highlighting. This paste server has no web
+interface for adding pastes, no stupid moving parts, no useless garbage.
+
+
+Documentation
+-------------
+
+Read `the manual`_
+
+.. _the manual: mpaste.1
+
+
+Compilation
+-----------
+
+Just run the ``make`` command.
