As long as all the pv instances have the same controlling tty and process group, which is accomplished by putting the whole thing inside parentheses ( "(",")" ) the IPC stuff works correctly. It's designed for parts of a single pipeline yes, but this trick appears to fool pv adequately well. At least on Linux and OpenBSD this works, not sure about Solaris.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
