Ghimlink (Github Image Linker)

A simple command-line application for generating a Github-Flavoured-Markdown image link for a file in your repository.

Simple Usage

For example, if we want to link to gimli.png and link.jpg in this repository's res/ directory, we could do so as follows:

ghimlink ./res/gimli.png
Enter alt text: Gimli
![Gimli](https://github.com/SCOTPAUL/ghimlink/raw/master/res/gimli.png)

ghimlink ./res/link.jpg 
Enter alt text: Link
![Link](https://github.com/SCOTPAUL/ghimlink/raw/master/res/link.jpg)

Giving us:

Ghimlink will handle retreiving your Github remote data automatically (as long as you have a valid origin remote on Github).
