Pipes, Forks, and IPC

#5
that's awesome lain, it's always fun when the teacher needs the student for help lol.

side note: I couldn't help thinking about Fork bombs when you were describing the process, because it uses the fork command to write new processes which implement the fork command when read, again and again and again until the system memory overloads and the system crashes.

it's a command loop that was particularly devastating on older systems which didn't have the RAM we do now.
