NAME

Padre::Plugin::Filter - Unix-like external filters in Padre.

DESCRIPTION

This plug-in enables the use of Unix-like external filtering commands/scripts to transform part or all of the current document.

The output of the filter can either replace the input, be appended to the input, or be inserted into a new document.

Unlike Unix filters, the filter mechanism in this plug-in is designed to use input and output files rather than STDIN and STDOUT.

See Padre::Plugin::Shell::Filter for details.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

To provide additional information for the plugin, various environment variables are set prior to performing the plugin action. These environment variables are covered in the Padre::Plugin::Shell::Base documentation.
