[Pipet Devel] NETPIPES

[J.W. Bizzaro]

I sent this link to the list a couple weeks ago.  I would very much like to
get a comment from Jarl on Netpipes.  Would any of this code be usable in the
BL?  Does it give you any ideas?  It seems to me that we will need to
re-invent much of this in the BL.  Am I wrong (again)?

"The netpipes package makes TCP/IP streams usable in shell scripts. It can
also simplify client/server code by allowing the programmer to skip all the
tedious programming bits related to sockets and concentrate on writing a
filter/service."
