Is it possible to take input from some stdin process and pipe
it over ethernet to another host?
For example, with tar(1) it is possible to do:
example% tar cvfb - 20 filenames | rsh host dd of=/dev/rmt0 obs=20b
which would back up a local file system onto a remote host with tape drive.
But would it be possible to something simalar with record(6)?
In other words, I'd like to record something through the local audio
stdin device and pipe it out over the network to another machine's
/dev/audio at the same time.
