.SH "DESCRIPTION" 
.PP 
This manual page documents briefly the 
\fBel\fR command. 
.PP 
This manual page was written for the \fBDebian\fP distribution 
because the original program does not have a manual page. 
Instead, it has documentation in the GNU       \fBInfo\fP format; see below. 
.PP 
\fBel\fR is a program that You can 
make a tuned shell-command for Oneliner with. 
This command can send S-exp to Emacs, and this can make Emacs 
evaluate it, too.  In other words, you can execute Emacs's 
function from shell-commands.  And you can make Emacs work in 
closer cooperation with your favorite shell-commands.  
.SH "OPTIONS" 
.PP 
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, 
with long options starting with two dashes (`\-').  A summary of 
options is included below.  For a complete description, see the

cmd means a function of Elisp.  Command line arguments 
and data from stdin means arguments of cmd.  If you 
specify the only \-c switch, el output one S-exp by one 
line of stdin. 
.IP "\fB\-\-a \fIn\fR\fP           \fB\-\-args \fIn\fR\fP         " 10 
Specifies the maximum number of arguments of a Elisp 
function with \-c switch. 
.IP "\fB-f \fIfmt\fR\fP           \fB\-\-format \fIfmt\fR\fP         " 10 
Allows you to use format string of printf for making a 
S-exp. 
.IP "\fB-x\fP           \fB\-\-execute\fP         " 10 
Requests to Oneliner to evaluate the S-exp to use 
*Oneliner auto-eval* buffer. 
.IP "\fB-i \fIbuf\fR\fP           \fB\-\-inpipe \fIbuf\fR\fP         " 10 
Gets input from pipe-buffer. You can specify a number 
of pipe-buffer, too. 
.IP "\fB-o \fIbuf\fR\fP           \fB\-\-outpipe \fIbuf\fR\fP         " 10 
Puts output to pipe-buffer. You can specify a number 
of pipe-buffer, too. 
.IP "\fB-s\fP           \fB\-\-serial\fP         " 10
