29 "Eshell's I/O management code provides a scheme for treating many
30different kinds of objects -- symbols, files, buffers, etc. -- as
31though they were files."

35;;; Commentary:
36
37;; At the moment, only output redirection is supported in Eshell. To
38;; use input redirection, the following syntax will work, assuming
39;; that the command after the pipe is always an external command:
40;;
41;; cat <file> | <command>
42;;
43;; Otherwise, output redirection and piping are provided in a manner
44;; consistent with most shells. Therefore, only unique features are
45;; mentioned here.
46;;
47;;;_* Insertion
48;;
49;; To insert at the location of point in a buffer, use '>>>':
50;;
51;; echo alpha >>> #<buffer *scratch*>;
52;;
53;;;_* Pseudo-devices
54;;
55;; A few pseudo-devices are provided, since Emacs cannot write
56;; directly to a UNIX device file:
57;;
58;; echo alpha > /dev/null ; the bit bucket
59;; echo alpha > /dev/kill ; set the kill ring
60;; echo alpha >> /dev/clip ; append to the clipboard
61;;
62;;;_* Multiple output targets
63;;
64;; Eshell can write to multiple output targets, including pipes.
65;; Example:
66;;
67;; (+ 1 2) > a > b > c ; prints number to all three files
68;; (+ 1 2) > a | wc ; prints to 'a', and pipes to 'wc'
