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 work‐
ing 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.
