 4 |   Pipe in and out of `$EDITOR`.
 5 | 
 6 |   Finally your editor is a real unix fellow, even if it doesn't support pipes at all.
 7 |   
 8 |   See also https://github.com/juliangruber/go-vipe.
 9 | 
10 | ## Example
11 | 
12 | ```bash
13 | # This will open an editor with the text "change me" loaded
14 | $ echo change me | vipe | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'
15 | CHANGED
16 | ```

18 | ![demo](vipe-demo.gif)
19 | 
20 | ## Installation
21 | 
22 | ```bash
23 | $ npm install -g juliangruber/vipe
24 | ```
25 | 
26 | ## Origin
27 | 
28 | This is a lightweight bash only version. For the original impementation in
29 | Perl, check https://github.com/madx/moreutils/blob/master/vipe.
30 | 
31 | ## Power combo with [gist](https://github.com/defunkt/gist) and [cipherhub](https://github.com/substack/cipherhub)
32 | 
33 |   With those functions in your `~/.bash_profile` (change username):
34 | 
35 | ```bash
36 | cipherup(){
37 |   cipherhub juliangruber | gist -pR | cut -d/ -f1-5
38 | }
39 | 
40 | cipheredit(){
41 |   curl -sL $1/raw | cipherhub | vipe | cipherhub juliangruber | gist -u $1
42 | }
43 | ```
44 | 
45 |   Store some secret data in a gist:
46 | 
47 | ```bash
48 | $ echo some secrets | cipherup
49 | <GIST-URL>
50 | ```
51 | 
52 |   And edit it again:
53 | 
54 | ```bash
55 | $ cipheredit <GIST-URL>
56 | ```
