1 pipeln 2 ====== 3 4 A command pipeline creation tool 5 6 SYNOPSIS 7 -------- 8 9 pipeln [-x] -- [CMD |..] CMD 10 11 DESCRIPTION 12 ----------- 13 14 pipeln builds data processing pipelines without the need to invoke a shell. 15 No argument expansion takes place, which ensures all arguments are properly quoted. 16 17 The pipeline is described in familiar shell-syntax: 18 A | character is placed behind commands whose output should be redirected 19 as the following command's input. 20 21 By default, command names are resolved automatically using the PATH 22 environment variable. The -x flag disables this behavior. 23 24 EXAMPLES 25 -------- 26 27 Build a data processing pipeline from C with clear argument boundaries: 28 29 > const char *argv[] = {"tmpl", "--", "ls", "|", "grep", "test", NULL} 30 > execv("/bin/tmpl", argv); 31 32 AUTHORS 33 ------- 34 35 Written by Louis Burda <quent.burda@gmail.com>.
