Re: remote-silent and stdin
Sorry I wasn't clear last time. I am trying to redirect the output of
stdin to a remote client(not necessarily ls). Like if I want to do a
cat <file> | gvim --remote-silent .
Its looks like -remote-silent takes in only files as arguments.
And its documented, too:
--remote [+{cmd}] {file} ... *--remote*
Open the file list in a remote Vim. When
there is no Vim server, execute locally.
There is one optional init command: +{cmd}.
This must be an Ex command that can be
followed by "|".
The rest of the command line is taken as the
file list. Thus any non-file arguments must
come before this.
You cannot edit stdin this way |--|.
The remote Vim is raised. If you don't want
this use >
vim --remote-send "<C-\><C-N>:n filename<CR>"
< --remote-silent [+{cmd}] {file} ... *--remote-silent*
As above, but don't complain if there is no
server and the file is edited locally.
Note the line that says "You cannot edit stdin this way".
