    Description (
       "FIFOPipeFile is a special type of LogicalFile that represents "
       "an interprocess FIFO (sometimes referred to as a \"named "
       "pipe\"). Operating systems use this convention to manage "
       "interprocess communication through processes reading and "
       "writing the FIFO. The FIFO can be accessed by unrelated "
       "processes, in contrast to the more well-known command line "
       "redirection mechanism (e.g. UNIX's 'ps -eaf | grep foo', also "
       "known as an \"unnamed pipe\"). An exemplary operating system "
       "implementation (using the FIFO concept) is the UNIX S_IFIFO "
       "file type.")]
