Hey all,

One feature of offpunk which is often overlooked is that you can send 
the content of a page to any command-line tool with the "!" instruction.

So, for example, you can grep for lines with "ploum" in a page with :


!grep ploum

Or count those lines with 

!grep ploum|wc -l


I just came accross a strange gemini page.

gemini://vigrey.com/journal/orjner-gur-vqrf-bs-znepu-gevcyr-pnrfne-cbfg.gmi


It looked like it was rot13 encoded so I simply give it a try with:


!rot13


It worked. (you obviously need the rot13 command-line tool installed on 
your system).



I thought I would share it here as it might not be an obvious feature 
but I find it very useful.

Cheers,
