Is there any easy way to include the output of external commands from shell
into texmacs? For example, in vim, if one wants to include the output of
date into a document, all that is needed is

:r !date

and the vim window will execute the date command on a shell and include its
output into the current document.


There's no command like that in TeXmacs, but it
would be quite easy to implement one by means of
some socket connection to your shell process and
by means of the tree (i.e. DOM-like) API of TeXmacs
to insert the output in the document. All the info
you need has been sent to the mailing list at some
point.
