^R^X executes an external command and dumps its output to the current buffer.

An in-progress patch for this feature is available at http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/nano-devel/2018-02/msg00078.html

This request is a duplicate of https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?28993

Hi, could you give me an example of an external command?
Which event does generate this external command for example?

Thanks!
Luca

If text is selected when an external command is executed, it should be piped to the command. And the command output should replace the selected text.
