INTRODUCTION

pyvipe is a Python port of vipe. pyvipe's command is vipe

This project is a by-product of trrc feature development.

INSTALLATION

pip

pip install pyvipe

Manual Installation

pip install .

USAGE

command1 | vipe | command2

Use --suffix to apply file syntax highlighting.

pyvipe special options

If you edit such a CRLF PIPE but want vipe to print it as a universial newline, then use --universal-newline. This option is for a Windows generated text file.

Environment Variables

pyvipe chooses the editor to use with the environment variable $VISUAL. If it is unset, it uses $EDITOR. If both are unset, it uses /usr/bin/editor if it exists. If none of those work, it defaults to vi.

FAQ

Editor exited nonzero, aborting.

In general, editor can exit with nonzero when you execute some command for various purposes. e.g preventing git rebase. But if you didn't execute the command but the editor exited with nonzero, it may be because of wrong user configuration for the editor.

For vi, you can debug it with EDITOR='vi -u NONE' vipe
