# Edit with Shell Command

Leverage your favourite shell commands to edit text.

## Features

* Edit the selected text by piping it through shell commands.
The same text is also available as an environment variable, `ES_SELECTED`.
* Insert the output of shell commands at the cursor position.
* Records command history: you can edit and reuse past commands.
* Use the shell you like. For example, if you have Bash on Windows, you can specify Bash as your shell for this extension.
* Register up to 5 quick commands that can be invoked by keyboard shortcuts.
* Support multi cursors.

A couple of requests from me when you raise an github issue.

* **Requesting a feature:** Please try to provide the context of why you want the feature. Such as, in what situation the feature could help you and how, or how the lack of the feature is causing an inconvenience to you. I can't think of introducing it until I understand how it helps you 🙂
