Vim user? Emacs true believer? Don’t feel left out – we’ve got Gist support for you too!
Vim users can grab Gist.vim (GitHub repo) while Emacsers will enjoy gist.el (which I maintain).
In Vim: @:Gist@
In Emacs: @M-x gist-buffer@
They both support Gisting selected text, private Gists, and will tie your Gists to your GitHub account (assuming you followed the Global Git Config instructions on your account page).
