i just thought of something great.

A file synchronization or ipc with one open, two forks.

and it's bi-directional with a probability of the time out occuring.

when the time out occurs on the select'ed file handle, it's the other sides time to write.
They could sync this by signal (100% reliable, or so i hear ;)
or by another probabilistic factor such as the size of the file and the time left to read it, \
all other factors outweighed.

Hope that helps.

Having fun if you are,
Jambo
