[tipc-discussion] Thoughts/comments on bash redirect functionality?

[Erik H. <eri...@gm...>]

If you are interested in network redirection support for bash:
https://github.com/Hugne/bash/commit/master

Currently, it works in RDM/DGRAM mode only i want to keep the interface
simple and not involve any seqpacket/rdm switches in the file path
specification.

So currently, you can do something like this:

Write and read (a simple RDM echo server is running on 1000/123)
> # exec 3 <>/dev/tipc/1000/123
> # echo FOO >&3
> # cat <&3
FOO

Write in its simplest form
> # echo FOO > /dev/tipc/1000/123


I have not added any serving socket functionality, bash don't have that for
tcp/udp redir either.

Any thoughts or comments?
