What Are Pipes?

Answer»

A PIPE is a chain of processes so that OUTPUT of one process (STDOUT) is fed an input (stdin) to another. UNIX shell has a special syntax for creation of pipelines. The commands are written in sequence separated by |. Different filters are used for Pipes like AWK, GREP.
e.g. SORT file | lpr ( sort the file and send it to PRINTER)
