   Is there an emacs function which will insert the output from a shell
   command into the current buffer? Something like what 
   shell-command-on-region does but in the current buffer. 

shell-command-on-region:
Execute string COMMAND in inferior shell with region as input.
Normally display output (if any) in temp buffer;
Prefix arg means replace the region with it.
Noninteractive args are START, END, COMMAND, FLAG.
Noninteractively FLAG means insert output in place of text from START to END,
and put point at the end, but don't alter the mark.

That is. Mark an empty region, then execute shell-command-on-region
with an prefix argument.
