Does not work for unnamed buffers

Suggeestion -
Use :w !grip -
to input current buffer contents as stdin to grip
Personally, I do not see a reason for implementing this niche feature request. Hence, I will be closing it.
Rationale:
By piping out the current buffer as the input to grip
, you lose out on the asynchronous aspect of needing to call grip
only once every time you want to see changes for a given file. True, calling :w !grip -
every time you want to see changes is not much more to write than :w
, but it is a significant enough for me to consider it as a negative change from the norm.
I did give working with unnamed buffers a shot, but I still could not provide a valid reason nor a good workflow to using unnamed buffers over creating a new file to storage and start working from there.
With that being said, feel free to create a pull request and I'd be more than wiling to review over it.
