[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Read standard input as new file (#780)

[FNakano]

Hello!
   In the case the stdin messages to insert into the editor are some other program execution results, executing the other program in a snippet might serve you.
   For instance, I needed grep output to be inserted into the editor so I defined the snippet:

task={command:sh -c 'grep -r -F "**tarefa**" /home/user/Documents/*'}

   After grep execution (Geany hangs until completion), its output is written into the editor active tab.

   Hope it helps.
