		Example: `
# Reads field under the given path for each file
yq e '.a.b' f1.yml f2.yml 

# Prints out the file
yq e sample.yaml 

# Pipe from STDIN
## use '-' as a filename to pipe from STDIN
cat file2.yml | yq e '.a.b' file1.yml - file3.yml

# Creates a new yaml document
## Note that editing an empty file does not work.
yq e -n '.a.b.c = "cat"' 

# Update a file in place
yq e '.a.b = "cool"' -i file.yaml
