Unfortunately this is not what I need. I need to be able to read the SVG from STDIN and write the PS to STDOUT.
In other command line utilities you do this by specifying - as the filename.
I figure it'd be easy to implement and hopefully I could do this in the next release.
But if anybody does know how to do this currently I'm all ears. Right now I am needlessly writing my SVG to a file in order to process it.
Have you tried:
... | inkscape -f /dev/fd/0 -P /dev/fd/1 | ...
under bash. The shell will arrange redirection. It seems to work for me.
