+
+Return zero if the two paths @var{s1} and @var{s2} are equivalent.
+If not equivalent, the returned value is similar to what strcmp would
+return. In other words, it returns a negative value if @var{s1} is less
+than @var{s2}, or a positive value if @var{s2} is greater than @var{s2}.
+
+This function does not normalize path names. As a result, this function
+will treat filenames that are spelled differently as different even in
+the case when the two filenames point to the same underlying file.
+However, it does handle the fact that on DOS-like file systems, forward

+The name of the input file is chosen according to the same rules

+
+Return a stream @var{fp} for a pipe connected to the standard input of

+You must have passed @code{PEX_USE_PIPES} to the @code{pex_init} call
+that returned @var{obj}.
+
+You must close @var{fp} using @code{fclose} yourself when you have
+finished writing data to the pipeline.
+
+The file descriptor underlying @var{fp} is marked not to be inherited
+by child processes.
+
+On systems that do not support pipes, this function returns
+@code{NULL}, and sets @code{errno} to @code{EINVAL}. If you would
+like to write code that is portable to all systems the @code{pex}
+functions support, consider using @code{pex_input_file} instead.
+
+There are two opportunities for deadlock using
+@code{pex_input_pipe}:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+Most systems' pipes can buffer only a fixed amount of data; a process
+that writes to a full pipe blocks. Thus, if you write to @file{fp}
+before starting the first process, you run the risk of blocking when
+there is no child process yet to read the data and allow you to
+continue. @code{pex_input_pipe} makes no promises about the
+size of the pipe's buffer, so if you need to write any data at all
+before starting the first process in the pipeline, consider using
+@code{pex_input_file} instead.
+
+@item
+Using @code{pex_input_pipe} and @code{pex_read_output} together
+may also cause deadlock. If the output pipe fills up, so that each
+program in the pipeline is waiting for the next to read more data, and
+you fill the input pipe by writing more data to @var{fp}, then there
+is no way to make progress: the only process that could read data from
+the output pipe is you, but you are blocked on the input pipe.
