Please would you explain it better to me? a. does this work on openbsd? b. (mkfifo fifo; echo ttttest > fifo; cat fifo) gives the obvious result and no side effect, how is (tmux loadb fifo) different? Also, these are quite busy machines, some have more recent software and some older, and quite a lot of applications use fifos without raising issues. c. I will try to inject debugging code into the load-buffer responsible functions, any good advice easing the work? Fulvio At Tue, 16 Feb 2010 20:25:11 +0000, Nicholas Marriott wrote: > > Dunno.
