Hi Pete,
for example I want to execute `grep' on my buffer/file to get a survey of the section headings in my document (that I keep in a special format for this purpose), e.g.:
$ egrep '^\s*-[[:upper:]]+' myfile
$ -INTRODUCTION
$ -BLA BLA
$ -BLA 2
$ -MAIN PART
$ -MISCELLANEOUS
$ -ETC BLA BLA
shell-command-on-region turned out to be a bit impractical, because I lose my current position in the document, as the cursor jumps to the beginning when running shell-command-on-region. I guess I would have to write a LISP macro to fix that...!?
Regards,
super-nub
