NAME

| plumb – send message to plumber

SYNOPSIS

| `plumb` [ `−p` plumbfile ] [ `−a` attributes ] [ `−s` source ] [ `−d` destination ] [ `−t` type ] [ `−w` directory ] `−i` | data...

DESCRIPTION

The plumb command formats and sends a plumbing message whose data is, by default, the concatenation of the argument strings separated by blanks. The options are:
`−p` write the message to plumbfile (default `/mnt/plumb/send`).
`−a` set the `attr` field of the message (default is empty).
`−s` set the `src` field of the message (default is `plumb`).
`−d` set the `dst` field of the message (default is empty).
`−t` set the `type` field of the message (default is `text`).
`−w` set the `wdir` field of the message (default is the current working directory of plumb).
`−i` take the data from standard input rather than the argument strings. If an `action=` attribute is not otherwise specified, plumb will add an `action=showdata` attribute to the message.
