Ha, I had no idea this existed, thanks! From a cursory reading it seems
that this feature is in its early days - it gives me a bit of a vibe of
an unpolished prototype - but it's definitely a great addition to Emacs!
I will certainly blog about is, since it is potentially very useful.
(Not to mention that it seems to bring Emacs even closer to an operating
system;-)).
Thanks,
