# block
A little tool for automatically blocking websites and urls from the command line.
It assumes there's a hostfile at `/etc/hosts`. If you're on macOS or most linux
distros, then this should likely be the case for you already.
## Warning
Block is more/less meant to be a one-way tool. If you want to remove something from your block list, you'll need to open up your `/etc/hosts` file and remove the line at the the end of the file yourself. There is no `unblock xyz.com`.
## Usage
```sh
$ block distractingsite.com
```
## Install
```sh
git clone https://github.com/Flaque/block.git;
cd ./block;
make;
sudo mv ./block /usr/local/bin/block;
```
