<p><font size=+1><b>DESCRIPTION </b></font><br>
<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>
The <i>plumb</i> command formats and sends a plumbing message whose data
is, by default, the concatenation of the argument strings separated
by blanks. The options are:<br>
<tt><font size=+1>&#8722;p</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;write the message to <i>plumbfile</i> (default <tt><font size=+1>/mnt/plumb/send</font></tt>).<br>
<tt><font size=+1>&#8722;a</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;set the <tt><font size=+1>attr</font></tt> field of the message (default is empty).<br>
<tt><font size=+1>&#8722;s</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;set the <tt><font size=+1>src</font></tt> field of the message (default is <tt><font size=+1>plumb</font></tt>).<br>
<tt><font size=+1>&#8722;d</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;set the <tt><font size=+1>dst</font></tt> field of the message (default is empty).<br>
<tt><font size=+1>&#8722;t</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;set the <tt><font size=+1>type</font></tt> field of the message (default is <tt><font size=+1>text</font></tt>).<br>
<tt><font size=+1>&#8722;w</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;set the <tt><font size=+1>wdir</font></tt> field of the message (default is the current working
directory of <i>plumb</i>).<br>
<tt><font size=+1>&#8722;i</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;take the data from standard input rather than the argument strings.
If an <tt><font size=+1>action=</font></tt> attribute is not otherwise specified, <i>plumb</i> will
add an <tt><font size=+1>action=showdata</font></tt> attribute to the message.<br>
