Buffering in standard streams



		Hi tech-userlevel@,

I just read this nice article from a coreutils maintainer:
http://www.pixelbeat.org/programming/stdio_buffering/

After detailing issues about buffering and pipes, it mentions a tool,
stdbuf(1), which was introduced in coreutils and then imported to
FreeBSD (since 8.4).

Do we want this too?

HTH,
