multipipe(1) General Commands Manual multipipe(1) NAME multipipe - supervise an pipeline of commands SYNOPSIS multipipe [ directory ] DESCRIPTION multipipe starts one supervise process for each subdirectory of the current directory. multipipe skips subdirectory names starting with dots. Each supervised processes is piped a copy of standard input sent to multipipe. Every five seconds, multipipe checks for subdirectories again. If it sees a new subdirectory, it starts a new supervise process. If a subdirectory is removed, it closes the pipe to that supervise process. Directory named supervise or with names starting with a period are ignored. If multipipe is given a command-line argument, it switches to that direc- tory when it starts. If multipipe is sent either the INT, QUIT, or the TERM signal, or it reaches end of file on standard input, it runs svc -dx on each command to shut it down, and waits for it to exit. RETURN VALUE Exits 0 when all the commands are shut down. SEE ALSO supervise, svscan multipipe(1)
