--- Begin Message --- Subject: 30.0.50 [PATCH]; Allow extending Eshell output targets Date: Fri, 18 Aug 2023 17:48:55 -0700 The attached patches split up the Eshell I/O target code so that each target type is its own method. Aside from fixing a couple tiny bugs, this should be exactly the same as before, but will make it easier to add new target types in the future (and for third-parties to be able to do this!).

This won't have any major impact just yet, but it's a very helpful precursor to a larger project I'm working on to pipe output in Eshell into Lisp functions (currently, Lisp functions - including Eshell builtins - can only be the first command in a pipeline).
