NAME
       stream - stream data between source and sink

SYNOPSIS
       stream [-a] [-b bufsize] file1 [ file2 ]

DESCRIPTION
       Stream  creates	a process that uses stream (see sys-read(2)) to stream
       data in chunks of at most bufsize bytes (default: or 8192  bytes)  from
       file1  to the standard output.  If file2 is provided, the two files are
       instead cross-connected by two streaming processes: one process streams
       data  from  file1  to  file2,  and the other streams data from file2 to
       file1.  In all cases, stream writes data to  the	 destination  file  in
       full buffers of bufsize bytes.

       Stream  waits  for  all	streaming  processes to stop before returning,
       unless the -a (asynchronous) option is given, which causes it to return
       after spawning the streamers.
