Simple question:  Is there some form of pipe program around somewhere that
emulates the serial.device, but just pipes the data from one program to
another, as if the programs were running on different machines?  For
example, you would tell one program to use "serpipe.device" unit 0, and the
other to use "serpipe.device" unit 1, and they would communicate as if they
were on different machines.  The reason I'm asking is because I'm wanting
to do some simple networking (two-player games, etc.) and don't have two
Amigas.

So, has anyone seen anything like this around?  If you have, please *EMAIL*
me - I can't read the net regularly.  I'll post a followup if anything
comes up and if there's interest.

Thanks in advance!
				Bryan
