ask, a single open source binary for ChatGPT prompting and splicing

Hey everyone, Like most devs, I spend a lot of time in my IDE and switching to chatgpt in the browser is pretty annoying, so I built a simple CLI tool to talk in the terminal. One cool feature is the ability to write prompts in text files and then inject text from other files into that prompt. Makes it super easy to pass source files and other docs to chatgpt without leaving the IDE.
