The interest in {{< abbr TUIs "terminal user interfaces" >}} online is high. In
the real world you tend to be constrained and blindfolded by the tools
available/allowed.
[Filtering](https://vimhelp.org/change.txt.html#complex-change) is peculiar
though.

See how the terminal/editor
[splits](/tdro/messages/terminal/#tdro-messages-terminal)? Filtering makes them
kiss? Commands that `input|output` (pipe) work best (compilers, transpilers and
code generators). The meta is the limit.
