Hi Garrett, I've used gr_file_descriptor_ to successfully read/write to pipes. As long as the pipe is empty, though, there should be no zeros. Are you sure you're actually seeing zeros, and the whole thing is not stalling? Cheers MB -- Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) Communications Engineering Lab (CEL) Dipl.-Ing.
