New from Gist

New from Gist.py

# This script downloads and opens a Gist from a URL in the clipboard.
# It's meant to be put in the editor's actions menu.
#
# It works with "raw" and "web" gist URLs, but not with gists that
# contain multiple files or non-Python files.
# 
# If a file already exists, a dialog is shown that asks whether the
# new file should be renamed automatically.

Why not support multiple files in gist? That might be very helpful when downloading a lib of my own, for instance
