Teip: Modify text in the middle of a file

Just discovered a new, interesting CLI tool called “teip” that allows you to make all kinds of modifications in the middle of a bunch of piped text. Think something like tee combined with sed or awk to make it easy to eg. format timestamps within a file before printing.

I’ve not done anything with it myself, but given the reliance on CLI utilities in Kakoune, I thought this might be of interest to the plugin writers of this community. Might simplify/speed up some text processing we’re currently doing. I’ll certainly be looking for places I can use it going forward.
