=head1 NAME
IO::pipe - supply object methods for pipes
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use IO::Pipe;
$pipe = new IO::Pipe;
if($pid = fork()) { # Parent $pipe->reader();
while(<$pipe> { .... }
} elsif(defined $pid) { # Child $pipe->writer();
print $pipe .... }
or
$pipe = new IO::Pipe;
$pipe->reader(qw(ls -l));
while(<$pipe>) { .... }
=head1 DESCRIPTION
C<IO::Pipe> provides an interface to createing pipes between processes.
=head1 CONSTRCUTOR
=over 4
=item new ( [READER, WRITER] )
Creates a C<IO::Pipe>, which is a reference to a newly created symbol (see the C<Symbol> package). C<IO::Pipe::new> optionally takes two arguments, which should be objects blessed into C<IO::Handle>, or a subclass thereof. These two objects will be used for the system call to C<pipe>. If no arguments are given then method C<handles> is called on the new C<IO::Pipe> object.
These two handles are held in the array part of the GLOB until either C<reader> or C<writer> is called.
=back
=head1 METHODS
=over 4
=item reader ([ARGS])
The object is re-blessed into a sub-class of C<IO::Handle>, and becomes a handle at the reading end of the pipe. If C<ARGS> are given then C<fork> is called and C<ARGS> are passed to exec.
=item writer ([ARGS])
The object is re-blessed into a sub-class of C<IO::Handle>, and becomes a handle at the writing end of the pipe. If C<ARGS> are given then C<fork> is called and C<ARGS> are passed to exec.
=item handles ()
This method is called during construction by C<IO::Pipe::new> on the newly created C<IO::Pipe> object. It returns an array of two objects blessed into C<IO::Pipe::End>, or a subclass thereof.
