Basic usage
Glob Pattern & output
ild cat input.css | postcss -u autoprefixer Piping input & output > output.css

If no input files are passed, it reads from stdin. If neither -o, --dir, or --re place is passed, it writes to stdout.

If there are multiple input files, the --dir or --replace option must be passed.

Input files may contain globs (e.g. src/**/*.css). If you pass an input director y, it will process all files in the directory and any subdirectories, respecting

the glob pattern.
