USER, 2-Way Pipes, and the KornShell

Some years ago I wrote a KornShell script that uses a 2-way
pipe (a KornShell feature) to/from 'bc' to convert numbers
from one base to another.

I find it useful from time to time.

Others may find it useful to see how 2-way pipes work (as a
way to understand how the filePro USER command works).

Ask, privately, and I'll send it to you.

Bob
