the only way i *ever* *understood* how to program using STREAMS was by
reading the few chapters in Stephen Rago's book, "UNIX System V Network
Programming".

it describes STREAMS from a programmer's perspective... but also from "square 
one"
in terms of programming.  it talked of the msg-types, and read/write-heads,
and WHY things were done the way they were... and Multiplexors.

...it's the only way i ever went from Richie's STREAMS paper to understanding
code.

'hope that helps

ps - there are 4 great chapters in the book on STREAMS... 4 out of 13 !
