I have a main script which writes to a named pipe. Before it starts writing, it starts two other scripts which read from this pipe. The reading and writing is a list of file names, one per line. How do I ensure that each script reads one complete line from the pipe at a time (no more, no less)?
I have a test set up, and it usually works, but sometimes a reader will get a blank line or just a "/" (but not any other part of a line)!
