Interestingly, Unix pipes don't really either. We've been packetized for years in the form of "lines" on Unix.
I'm thinking of writing a pipe "adapter" for zmq, e.g.: zpipe --istream tcp://myhost:3333 | grep -v foobar | zpipe --ostream tcp://yourhost:4444 zpipe --sub pgm://whatever --topic alarms | grep -i urgent That would be fun to play with. :-) On Jun 17, 2010, at 4:59 PM, Brian Granger wrote: >> Now, if you truly want to define 0MQ as a standard way of >> communicating across applications / languages / Oss, then yes, you >> need to standardize the data representation.
