## Install

```console
$ pip install pip-name
```

## Usage

```sh
$ pip-name
```

#### Examples

```sh
$ pip-name flake8
flake8 is unavailable

$ pip-name blake201
blake201 is available

$ pip-name chromatic
chromatic is unavailable
```

## Why?
Let's see, It's a pain in the ass to finally upload that module you've been writing for a while only to realize that a package with that same name already exists up there.
