Is that plugin in the dolphin-plugins package?

I just looked at the code and I think QTemporaryFile would be nice (for us), although that might slow down the code on Unix. There is no equivalent of a named pipe in the file system and svn also doesn't seem to have other means of giving the output in memory :-/ > > (In reply to comment #1) > > Is that plugin in the dolphin-plugins package? > > Yes.
