ipcd

A userspace daemon for interprocess communication.

Usage

See the examples folder.

Simply open chan:<name> with O_CREAT where <name> is any name you'd like to create a listener.
This listener can accept clients by calling dup("listen").

Open chan:<name> without O_CREAT to connect. Now you can read and write between both streams.
