Re: how to read long shell output

Aaron Lewis:
"
should work with standard unix command `less` and pipe , did you try
with it ?

! cd %:h && nm `find .. -name *.so ` | less <cr>
"

Doesn't work. See:
Error detected while processing /users/yizaq/.vimrc:
line 534:
E492: Not an editor command: less <cr>

Christian Brabandt:
"
How about :r! nm `find %:h -name *.so ...` to redirect the output into a
scratch buffer?
"

I did
:r! cd %:h && nm `find .. -name *.so ` <cr>

but output goes to current buffer, not scratch. I'm probably doing
something wrong, could you please point out what?

Thanks,
Yosi
