[Coco] [coco] Piping in OS9?

While what you're suggesting is probably possible from a programming point 
of view, I think the coco that is the pipe would become so IO bound as to be 
unusable.

Basically, you'd need a programme which will read one serial port and write 
to another and vice-versa. There's a Linix programme which does that, though 
the name escapes me just now.
