A use case
wget -O http://planet.openstreetmap.org/planet-110112.osm.bz2 | tee
planet.bz2 | osm2sql | psql osm
planet-*osm.bz2 files are 14GB at the moment. it would be great to read them
from stdin while downloading from a server and uploading to a database at the
same time.
Of course, you can insert "bzip2 -d" into the pipe... but then why to bother
with bz2 module in Python? ;)
