Message-ID: <115@.msinc.msi.com> Date: 4 Sep 90 01:19:47 GMT Distribution: na Organization: Management Sciences, Inc. Lines: 11 I need a portable solution to the following problem: I have two processes communicating via a pipe. I need some way of ftruncating what's in the pipe channel. Using ftruncate doesn't seem to clear the pipe (On a 4.3Taho vax). Thanks Peter Blemel ------------ Note : It's possible that the email address on this post is wrong.
