file descriptor question

[Duston, Hal]

David,

Yes it is.  One of W. Richard Stevens' books describes 
how to do this.  I don't have code to do it handy at 
this moment, but I have done so in the past.  I will 
need to hunt it down in another project whose code is 
at home.

Something like this, though.
