ZSH party tricks

Every single person here has used the $(find ~) and `which sbcl` syntax to expand command output as an argument to another command, but a shitload of people don't know that you can write =(foo) instead to pipe the output to a temp file. This is great when you want to edit the output of a command somehow but you don't need to save it. For example:

[Code/Other]% ls
APL    Cobol    Glasses    MIPS    VHDL
[Code/Other]% ed =(man ed)
26242
1,10p

If you only need the same behavior as a pipe (|), you can have the shell send it to a FIFO node on the filesystem by writing <(foo) instead of =(foo). I think it's the other way around in Bash.

I'm trolling you all by posting actual stuff instead of serious discussions about Zionism. I have every expectation it will work and be amazing. Seriously fuck you guys.

Linux vendors are using actually good versions of Bash and actually good versions of GCC. Apple is holding itself back by forcing outdated versions down its user's throat!
