I looked on several online help pages for using pipe in the linux command

  • 0

I looked on several online help pages for using pipe in the linux command line but I wasn’t able to get anything to work. My best guess as to what would work was the following:

bundle show jquery-rails | gnome-open

But it fails. If instead I run bundle show jquery-rails and then copy the results and then type gnome-open and then paste, it works fine. Is there a way to combine this into a single step I can run from the command line?

Background

If you’d like to understand why I care, see this question: How do I browse the source code for a gem in Rails3 with RVM (linux & gedit)

    As was noted in the question you posted on Ask Ubuntu, you need to use a subcommand.

    gnome-open "$(bundle show jquery-rails)"
