This is just test code to see if I can actually get the vm_stat data. It is run
only under the debugger 1 or 2 steps at a time. When I have the concept down I
will modify it.
No, I actually mean != 0, see below - it is the description of how reading
available data from a NSFileHandleForReading...
Return Value
The data currently available through the receiver.
Discussion
If the receiver is a file, returns the data obtained by reading the
file from the file pointer to the end of the file. If the receiver is a
communications channel, reads up to a buffer of data and returns it; if no data
is available, the method blocks. Returns an empty data object if the end of
file is reached. Raises NSFileHandleOperationException if attempts to determine
file-handle type fail or if attempts to read from the file or channel fail.
