Eshell redirection
Posted: - Modified: | emacsMike Mattie has this awesome Emacs tip for
Eshell: redirecting to buffers and Lisp symbols!
To overwrite buffer “foo”:
ls > #<buffer foo>
To append to buffer “foo”:
ls >> #<buffer foo>
To insert at point in buffer “foo”:
ls >>> #<buffer foo>
To redirect to a Lisp symbol:
ls >#'some-variable
I had no idea Emacs could do that. Cool!

Random Emacs symbol: ps-extend-face-list – Function: Extend face in ALIST-SYM.
Thanks to David Ongaro for catching that!
