# TerminalMdB#

**TerminalMdB** (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/terminalmdb/0.0.3) is a *NIX command-line interface for the IMdB. It makes use of the excellent API over at www.omdbapi.com to retrieve
basic movie information.

##Usage

Either set up an alias:

```alias imdb = python path/to/terminalMDB.py```

Or preferably use [pip](http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/installing.html):

```pip install terminalmdb```

TerminalMDB can be used with one of three flags:

```imdb -t "foo" => search by title and return first result```

```imdb -i "tt0066921" => search by id and return the result``` (new in version 0.0.3)

```imdb -s "bar" => search by title and return all results```
