I'm trying to use Filter Through Command, but it doesn't seem to be working right. For example:
1. Create a new document and add the characters "ABCXYZ" 2. Select all text 3. Go to the Text > Filter Through Command dialog 4. For the command, enter "tr -d X" 5. For the input, choose Selection 6. For the output, choose Replace Selection 7. Click Execute
Expected result: The selection changes to "ABCYZ" Observed result: Nothing changes
Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?
Note that the command appears to work for other output choices (e.g., Show as Tool Tip). It's only the Replace Selection option that's giving me trouble.

Upgrade to latest cutting edge, it was accidentally crippled some time ago.
I'm using Version 1.5.2 (1128) on Tiger (10.4.7) and it works for me. Don't know what could go wrong there.
