Piping data to vimby yoda54 (Monk) |

yoda54 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Greetings Monks,
I'm calling vim inside one of my perl scripts to edit various run time data (lists and such). Right now within my script I'm doing something like: data is written to a file, open with vim, save/close vim, openfile/refresh runtime data. I'm sure there's a better approach. Is there a way pipe data directly to vim from perl? Do any of you have something like this out there? Thanks for any suggestions.
