Well, yes, fork()/exec() and spawn-like things are capable of doing the same things, more or less. On the other hand, shell pipelines were used for concurrency before BSD added networking code. And I have doubts that shell pipelines would have developed without the fork()/exec() model---see the author's Windows NT (and earlier) with really, seriously broken shell models. |
