A tutorial for the Sam command language (1986) [pdf]
deadpixi's sam port[1] includes a "ssam" command, but it's just a shell-script that writes standard input to a temporary file, launches sam to run commands, then copies the temporary file to standard output - it's not really a "stream".
"Plan 9 from User Space" has its own ssam command, whose implementation is basically the same, except as an rc script instead of a shell script.
I don't know if there's an actually-streaming sam implementation anywhere.

Introduction to the Sam Text Editor
Sam for modern Linux and BSD can be obtained from two different sources. One is Plan 9 from User Space that ports Plan 9 programs to other Unix-like operating systems, and the other is Deadpixi Sam that has continued development of the 1990s Unix port of Sam. I installed and reviewed Deadpixi Sam. If you install a different version of Sam, some of the configuration details might differ, but most of the information here should apply to all versions of Sam.
