I'd usually go with the named pipe option. Note that win32 also  
provides named pipes (albeit with a different and much more awkward  
API) so it is possible to write code using named pipes on linux, OSX  
and win32.

FWIW, I think Greg has a named pipe example on his fltk cheat pages -  
but I may be mis-remembering that...
