This is fixed in r530. Issue 104 and Issue 340 were already closed by that.

This has not been fixed. Why was this closed. You still can't edit the doc from 
the cli. only upload.

I apologize for giving you wrong info. This is not closed, I am not a project 
member, can't do that.

I thought docs also supported stdin by using

  google docs edit --title _ < filename

A patch for uploading and editing using stdin is attached.

When upload, you use the following syntax to specify for using stdin as src

  _.<ext>

The <ext> is the file type, it’s required. It’s just like normal file 
extensions, e.g. you can use

  _.txt
  _.odt
  [... and so on}

When edit, you specify the editor is _, e.g.

  --editor _ < file_to_use

Example commands for upload and edit:

  ./google.py docs upload --title ’testdoc’ _.odt < test.odt
  ./google.py docs edit --title ’testdoc’ --format odt --editor _ < test.odt

(Note that --format option is important for .odt (and maybe other types), or 
you might get a text format to edit)

If there is real need for filename such as _.odt, then you should type in as 
./_.odt or use full/relative path.
