The only question is how much work it will take ;-) Some resources: - Take a look at the node_actions.py and at_produce.py plugins. - The BackgroundProcessManager class in leoBackground.py allows you to coordinate with separate process. For example, Leo's pylint command sends its output to Leo's log pane as well as the console. You could send to a node instead. - The ExternalFilesController class in leoExternalFiles.py allows you to track changes to external files. So if a command write to a file, a script/command can be notified when the file changes/closes. There may already be a better solution. Any suggestions from the peanut gallery?
