Pipes is specific only to Windows (you can use sockets
on Windows/Linux/mac). The only specific treatment of
pipes I've seen is in Python Programming for Win32 by
Mark Hammond/Andy Robinson.

There are pipes in Unix too, named and anonymous, and I think they predate
its introduction in Windows (first on NT4 I believe). "Pipes" used to
redirect standard input/output are certainly much older.
To the OP: what do you want to do, exactly?

You are right. I didn't think about piping of commands since that
wouldn't really be a Python question. I thought user wanted pipes
for interprocess communication that is prevalent in Windows. I
guess the OP can chime in and we can answer the question better.

Hello Larry,
i have programmed pipes with Windows NT for about 8-9 years ago and have
made an update of the program two years ago under Windows XP. There
are differences in the security settings. Under XP it's not allowed to
connect to the pc by network! You have to set security options when you
create the pipe on the local machine to allow external access to the pipe.

Afterwards, i would prefer a standard TCP or UDP connection, because
it's available on every system and i do not see any advantage for using
the pipes.

In actual projects i use only TCP or UDP - depending what i have to to.
