Yeah I think so too, I was saving that for a future increment. > I don't see why this can't be done via ipc messages. I may not know enough, but I don't think ipc messages play nice with select, looking toward the day when we must monitor many input streams at the same time, many events coming in from many sources. You can select on many file descriptors, as I do in my adapter and other programs, but I don't think you can select on 4 file descriptors and an ipc message queue. If I'm wrong, we can switch from pipes to messages in the future, if it makes sense to do so. Probably not a big difference either way.
