When the +source is closed (or end-of-file is reached) the subsequent command is +executed. + +There are no options to set. Usage is as simple as + + rsvr <subsequent command with argument> + +With the source data being read from `stdin`. + +# Example + + # download a PDF from the web and show it using MuPDF + curl <some URL> | rsvr mupdf /dev/stdin |
