Makeaur - a (very) simple AUR wrapper

Yes, I believe that there are more than enough programs out there that accomplish this. And yes, this started out almost as a joke. However, I've gotten enough downloads on my site that I think this warrants addition to my little collection of scripts. Hence, I've added makeaur to the AUR.

All makeaur is is a wrapper for pacman and makepkg that allows users to easily install packages from the Arch User Repository.

Basically, but makeaur is much simpler. It literally does nothing but allow you to install a program from the AUR. Like I said, there's plenty of (better) programs out there, and I just threw this together to prove a point.

Good and simple script... but without search this script is useless, beacuse i still need to use browser.
