re: B command
in Boyd's original implmentation the pipe was in the home
directory, but i moved to /tmp to prevent network accesses
on the pipe and to have it automatically removed after a
system or program crash.
scott's observation confirms my experience: the location
of the named pipe is site-dependent. i'll update the README
file accordingly.
of course, in plan 9 we avoid the problem completely: by convention
the pipe is placed in a convenient place in the namespace.
