22;;; Commentary:
23
24;; At the moment, only output redirection is supported in Eshell. To
25;; use input redirection, the following syntax will work, assuming
26;; that the command after the pipe is always an external command:
27;;
28;; cat <file> | <command>
29;;
30;; Otherwise, output redirection and piping are provided in a manner
31;; consistent with most shells. Therefore, only unique features are
32;; mentioned here.
33;;
34;;;_* Insertion
35;;
36;; To insert at the location of point in a buffer, use '>>>':
37;;
38;; echo alpha >>> #<buffer *scratch*>;
39;;
40;;;_* Pseudo-devices
41;;
42;; A few pseudo-devices are provided, since Emacs cannot write
43;; directly to a UNIX device file:
44;;
45;; echo alpha > /dev/null ; the bit bucket
46;; echo alpha > /dev/kill ; set the kill ring
47;; echo alpha >> /dev/clip ; append to the clipboard
48;;
49;;;_* Multiple output targets
50;;
51;; Eshell can write to multiple output targets, including pipes.
52;; Example:
53;;
54;; (+ 1 2) > a > b > c ; prints number to all three files
55;; (+ 1 2) > a | wc ; prints to 'a', and pipes to 'wc'
