multipipe - pipes stdin to a set of programs
multipipe dir
multipipe
switches to the directory named dir and starts each executable program
in that directory. It then reads data from stdin and pipes the output to
all of the running programs. If any program exits, multipipe will restart
it.
Every five seconds, multipipe checks for changes to the directory. If
it sees a new program, it starts it and continues piping data to it. If
a program has disappeared, its pipe is closed and removed from the program.
If multipipe is interrupted or stdin is closed, it will close all its
pipes and wait for programs to exit before exiting.
