How to Install

Using Python

Using alias/DOSKEY

Setting up an alias for the script will allow you to use a custom, short "name" for any action.

For Unix systems place the following into .bashrc or .zshrc

alias http-code="python -m httcode $@"

For Windows place the following into your bat file that runs on terminal startup. If you do not know how to set this up, look into this answer on Stack Overflow

DOSKEY http-code="python -m httcode" $*
