Last i checked helix did not have a way to run commands and pipe results to something like quickfix. Is this a thing these days?


In Helix this is mostly meant to be mediated by language servers. That said, you can use `:pipe` and other commands to pass the current selection to arbitrary shell commands and do stuff with the output.


I just want to run a makefile command and pipe stuff to some sort of quickfix like thing. How is this related to a language server?
