Pipe!F  pipe(F = File)() if (is(F == struct));

Creates an unnamed, unidirectional  pipe that can be written to on one end and read from on the other.

Examples
import core.thread : Thread;

immutable message = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.";

auto p = pipe();

void writer()
{
    p.writeEnd.write(message);

    // Since this is buffered, it must be flushed in order to avoid a
    // deadlock.
    p.writeEnd.flush();
}

auto thread = new Thread(&writer).start();

// Read the message from the other thread.
char[message.length] buf;
assert(buf[0 .. p.readEnd.read(buf)] == message);

thread.join();
