Reworked the sprunge script into a zsh function. There's no need to manipulate $PATH to get a zsh script loading.

+DESCRIPTION
+  Upload data and fetch URL from the pastebin http://sprunge.us
+
+USAGE
+  $0 filename.txt
+  $0 < filename.txt
+  piped_data | $0
+
+INPUT METHODS
+
+$0 can accept piped data, STDIN redirection [<filename.txt], text strings
+following the command as arguments, or filenames as arguments.  Only one
+of these methods can be used at a time, so please see the note on
+precedence.  Also, note that using a pipe or STDIN redirection will treat
+tabs as spaces, or disregard them entirely (if they appear at the
+beginning of a line).  So I suggest using a filename as an argument if
+tabs are important either to the function or readability of the code.
+
+PRECEDENCE
+
+STDIN redirection has precedence, then piped input, then a filename as an
+argument. Example:
+
+    echo piped | "$0" arguments.txt < stdin_redirection.txt
+
+In this example, the contents of file_as_stdin_redirection.txt would be
+uploaded. Both the piped_text and the file_as_argument.txt are ignored. If
+there is piped input and arguments, the arguments will be ignored, and the
+piped input uploaded.
+
+FILENAMES
+
+If a filename is misspelled or doesn't have the necessary path
+description, it will NOT generate an error, but will instead treat it as
+a text string and upload it.
