Personally I don't see why FLuxus couldn't listen to Std-in so we could pipe stuff into it. IMHO redoing the editor in Scheme should be higher priority but I think we could. What should be theoretically possible would be a spawned task in FLuxus that would use system calls to monitor a named pipe, then call "(eval my-string)" on the result. I suspect that such system calls are blocking though, making them less fun. You might be interested in using drFlux instead, running that in a screen session and sending your text there. That works, though it's less pleasant when you missed a closing bracket. Hope that helps you in the right direction. Kas.
