This will be the most hideous comment I've ever made on the internet.
I would die for something like this to be an emacs package, to be written in elisp. I do all my development and data processing in emacs on remote clusters and it is insanely efficient and quick to iterate. The only thing that slows me down is getting and making plots. I can, of course, but I still mount the drive and transfer plots as compressed images. Which is horrifically inefficient for doing very quick rapid iterations on the processing of data....
Of course, the effort to duplicate the functionality of this in elisp that properly displays in the emacs TUI would be herculean. But there's no way I can install ruby on my remote clusters :(
- dima55 4y agoNot sure if this is what you want, but you can pipe emacs regions into shell commands, which interoperates nicely with lots of stuff. I routinely hit M-| to make plots with feedgnuplot. Works great
- earthscienceman 4y agoOk, yeah. I had no clue that was a thing. That will be extremely useful. I'm often running python in a buffer and being able to run commands on output is a dream. Thanks dima55 and thank you emacs.
