plugin XEP-0277: post repeating implementation: Repeating a post as specified at https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0277.html#repeat is now implemented. On sending, one can either use the new `repeat` method (or the bridge `mbRepeat` one from frontends) to repeat any XEP-0277 item, or use the field `repeated` in microblog data's `extra`. This field must mainly contains the `by` field with JID of repeater (the "author*" field being filled with original author metadata), and the `uri` field with link (usually `xmpp:` one) to repeated item. When receiving a repeated item, the same `repeated` field is filled. rel 370

==================================================
pipe: send/receive data stream through shell pipes
==================================================

``pipe`` commands allow you to send or receive data stream through a Unix shell pipe.
Libervia will create a network connection (using XMPP and Jingle) between you an your
contact.

in
==

Receive data stream. Data will be send to stdout, so it can be piped out or simply print
to the screen. You can specify bare jids of entities to accept stream for, by default all
streams are accepted.

example
-------

Receive a video stream, and redirect it to mpv_ so show the video::

  $ li pipe in | mpv -

.. _mpv: https://mpv.io/

out
===

Send data stream. Data comes from stdin, so you may use pipe in something or just write
some text.

The only expected argument is the full jid of the device where the stream must be piped
out.

example
-------

Send a video to louise::

 $ li pipe out louise@example.org/libervia.123 < some_video.webm

Send output from ``cal`` command to louise::

 $ cal | li pipe out louise@example.org/libervia.123
