UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users

here i havent tried to make a communication between two terminals of different machines
not either any socket program

my simple aim is use ipc for chat between two soft terminals(tty's)

here is my view two terminals with two applications working on same fifo
one fifo b/w two terminals try to stout the message from other and vice a versa

i use Ubutntu 3.2.0 version,where, parent executes first


what actually happened is i could not do it msg taken to fifo but not dispalyed at the other end,what may be the mistake?



more over i could not debug these type of ipc programs suggest me good tutorial links for debugging unix programs rather than simple C programs

why the space is also taken as a delimiter can u explain

Because that's what the %s conversion of scanf does. You should look into using fgets()
