+FIFOs are pipes that can be accessed like regular files. FIFOs exist
+until they are deleted (for example with \code{os.unlink}).
+Generally, FIFOs are used as rendez-vous between ``client'' and
+``server'' type processes: the server opens the FIFO for reading, and
+the client opens it for writing. Note that \code{mkfifo()} doesn't
+open the FIFO -- it just creates the rendez-vous point.
