=head1 BUGS

B<wgetpaste> works by hard-coding URLs and CGI parameters into
the script. This means that if a paste service's web site changes,
B<wgetpaste> might stop working with that site. Currently (January 2015),
the B<ca> (http://pastebin.ca) and B<bpaste> (http://bpaste.net) services
are broken, and the others have been tested and work OK.
