BufferedPipeReader: A plugin for temporary data display
This plugin allows to display data from multiple pipes. New data will always overwrite the currently displayed data. However, if a timeout is specified, the previous content is restored. Configuration works like this: BufferedPipeReader <Alias> [ ( Timeout, "/path/to/fifo/pipe" ), (..), .. ] If Timeout is set to 0 then the content is persistent, i.e. it will be reset to any previous value, it will itself become the previous value. If Timeout is set to a negative value the earth will stop spinning, so don't do it.
