I have actually heard of a company doing an in-house FreeBSD emulation of streams, in user-land, so that's certainly possible. (No, I don't know if they're prepared to make it available). A "real" SVR4-style kernel implementation would be a lot of work, though. > I'm a BSD programmer, however I like the STREAMS model. I've never used it myself, but I can see it having some advantages (as well as some disadvantages, which we'll no doubt soon hear about 8-) -- James Raynard, Edinburgh, Scotland james@jraynard.demon.co.uk
