Could the event structure be used to capture an input from a pipe

[atoanha]

I am thinking of porting an RMB program (HP-BASIC/HP-UX) to LabVIEW Linux.
This program communicates with a C-program by pipes.
In the RMB program an event is setup, that whenever the C-program posts a message an event is triggered and the message is read.
Could the event structure in LabVIEW be used to capture an input from a pipe in this way.

I do not know if this helps but LabVIEW 7 has a function so that you can set a user event from a c program. Look in using exernal code in LabVIEW manual for postlvuserevent.
