Accessing a named pipe within Progress

To access a named pipe from Progress, open it for input or output using the INPUT FROM and OUTPUT TO statements. For example, the following line of Progress code opens the previously created named pipe inpipe for input:

INPUT FROM inpipe NO-ECHO.

After invoking this statement, all input statements that use the unnamed stream, such as SET or IMPORT, take their input from inpipe.
