I need to write a Python script that can run another command line program and interact with it's stdin and stdout streams. Essentially, the Python script will read from the target command line program, intelligently respond by writing to its stdin, and then read the results from the program again. (It would do this repeatedly.) I've loo...

I'm thinking of using find or grep to collect the files, and maybe sed to make the change, but what to do with the output? Or would it be better to use "argdo" in vim?

Hello, I'm interested in different approaches to gracefully shutting down a Java command line program. Sending a kill signal is not an option. I can think of a few different approaches.

To illustrate, here's how to do it from the command-line: vim `grep "hello" * -Rl` This opens vim with all the files that have "hello" in them (-l gives the filenames alone). I want to do the same thing, but from within vim. Conceptually, something like this (which doesn't work): :args !grep "hello" * -Rl I'm open to completely di...

I have a program that passes command-line arguments to an associated file (i.e. associated file extension) of an executable. The executable never receives the arguments. However, if I start the executable directly and pass it both the path to the associated file and the arguments, then it receives both the file path and the arguments. ...
