.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
dtas-sourceedit spawns an editor to allow editing of a source as a YAML
file.
See dtas-player_protocol(7) for details on SOURCEARGS.
+If standard input is a pipe or file, it is parsed as YAML and fed to the
+dtas-player(1) instance non-interactively.
+This is useful for loading various profiles from the filesystem.
