-Command line interface for [Write.as](https://write.as) and [Write.as on Tor](http://writeas7pm7rcdqg.onion/). Works on Windows, OS X, and Linux.
+Command line interface for [Write.as](https://write.as). Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
-Like the [Android app](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abunchtell.writeas), the command line client keeps track of the posts you make, so future editing / deleting is easier than [doing it with cURL](http://cmd.write.as/). The goal is for this to serve as the backend for any future GUI app we build for the desktop.
+## Features
+
+* Publish anonymously to Write.as
+* A stable, easy back-end for your GUI app or desktop-based workflow
+* Compatible with our [Tor hidden service](http://writeas7pm7rcdqg.onion/)
+* Locally keeps track of any posts you make
+* Update and delete anonymous posts
+* Fetch any post by ID
+* Add anonymous post credentials (like for one published with the [Android app](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abunchtell.writeas)) for editing
## Installing
The easiest way to get the CLI is to download a pre-built executable for your OS.
Get the latest version for your operating system as a standalone executable.
**Windows**<br />
Download the [64-bit](https://github.com/writeas/writeas-cli/releases/download/v1.0/writeas_1.0_windows_amd64.zip) or [32-bit](https://github.com/writeas/writeas-cli/releases/download/v1.0/writeas_1.0_windows_386.zip) executable and put it somewhere in your `%PATH%`.
**macOS**<br />
Download the [64-bit](https://github.com/writeas/writeas-cli/releases/download/v1.0/writeas_1.0_darwin_amd64.zip) executable and put it somewhere in your `$PATH`, like `/usr/local/bin`.
**Linux**<br />
Download the [64-bit](https://github.com/writeas/writeas-cli/releases/download/v1.0/writeas_1.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz) or [32-bit](https://github.com/writeas/writeas-cli/releases/download/v1.0/writeas_1.0_linux_386.tar.gz) executable and put it somewhere in your `$PATH`, like `/usr/local/bin`.
### Go get it
```bash
go get github.com/writeas/writeas-cli/cmd/writeas
```
Once this finishes, you'll see `writeas` or `writeas.exe` inside `$GOPATH/bin/`.
## Upgrading
To upgrade the CLI, download and replace the executable you downloaded before.
If you previously installed with `go get`, run it again with the `-u` option.
```bash
go get -u github.com/writeas/writeas-cli/cmd/writeas
```
