gollark: You can get the time/date in UTC and localtime with `os.date` or something, and Unix time, but I don't think there's a way to parse dates.
gollark: The rest of `pastebin` is mostly just argument parsing. Well, and handling other stuff like `put` and `run`.
gollark: The *important* bit is just that it downloads the *raw* file from pastebin, then writes it to startup.
gollark: ```lualocal function update() local h, err = http.get("https://pastebin.com/raw/whatever") if not h then printError(err) return end local f = fs.open("startup", "w") f.write(h.readAll()) f.close() h.close()end```
gollark: You could use the idea of it instead of downloading it using `pastebin`, I mean.
