In vi[m] there is the ! command which lets me pipe text through a shell command — like sort or indent — and get the filtered text back into the buffer. Is there an equivalent in emacs?
You can select a region and type `C-u M-| command RET’, and it replaces the region with the command output in the same buffer due to the interactive prefix argument of shell-command-on-region.
