would like to be able to just: slackcat -c channelname --comment "test message"

fire and forget

TrevorSayre commented 5 years ago

This may be solved with just: echo -e "test message" | slackcat -t -s -c channelname

But then I have to ctrl-c twice to exit, etc.

you should not need to ctrl-c when streaming; slackcat will exit when piped input reaches EOF.

Using your example:

slackcat connected to team as user
slackcat starting stream
test message
slackcat flushing remaining messages to Slack...
slackcat posted 1 message lines to channelname
