With shelltemp=0, Vim automatically falls back to using temp files if
pipes don't work. So why isn't shelltemp=0 the default?
If I understand correctly, 'shelltemp' affects:
:!
:w !foo
:r !foo
But it does _not_ affect system(). Is that because it just hasn't been
implemented for system(), or is it a design decision? system() often
has temp file permissions issues on Windows[1][2][3][4], so using
pipes could make system() more reliable.
Another question. :help 'shelltemp' says:
The advantage of using a temp file is that the file type and encoding
can be detected.
The FilterReadPre, FilterReadPost and FilterWritePre,
FilterWritePost autocommands event are not triggered when
'shelltemp' is off.
Is there a technical reason this can't be done?
Thanks!
