Of course, that doesn't wait to see whether cmd succeeds.
I wonder whether a situ-like could be used to produce a diff of the
original file, rather than a complete second copy. Programs like sed
don't generally make that many changes, so if we were to connect situ
to the file and the cmd's stdout we could compute the diff and then
patch the original file once cmd exits 0. If someone could get that
working it would be pretty sweet.
Thanks,
