That only worked for the first thing echoed to the pipe then, the
infinite loop spun.
The following does what I need:
while true; do
cat < mypipe | read LINE
echo $LINE
done
Thanks for the help!
David

Will read and subsequently echo the data coming down from the named
pipe.

I would like to create an infinite loop, in a shell script, based upon
listening to named pipe. Does anyone know how to do this?
TIA
