Extension summary
This is really just a word in progress to make it easier to test out code from https://gist.github.com/ by running it on the ScraperWiki platform.
When you're looking at a gist a cog icon should appear in the address bar, which you can click to run the code. Not all languages work at present (C, C++, Python, Ruby, Perl, R, Tcl and Shell-bash) and tend to break if the code is incomplete or dependant on external libs. But most should work if self-contained and correct.
