+ *          EZ(easy) Inter-Process Communication single-file library
+ *
+ *
+ * At the moment, this is just a wrapper around POSIX named pipes (aka FIFOs)
+ * that creates duplex communication channel between 2 processes.
+ *
+ *
+ *                              Brief Description
+ *
+ * Just create the connections with ezi_create() on a "server" and ezi_connect()
+ * on a "client" process. Then use ezi_{send,recv}() functions to push data
+ * around. There is no functional difference between "server" and "client"
+ * except that "server" is ultimately responsible for OS resources (the created
+ * named pipes) clean up.
+ * When you're done, ezi_destroy() the connection on the "server" and
+ * ezi_disconnect() it on the "client" side.
+ *
+ * The library provides a reliable way to send sized frames between 2 processes.
+ * The data size is enforced, but other than that there are no assumptions about
+ * possible higher-level usage of this code. If the reader cannot receive full
+ * frame at once, it is truncated and the reset is discarded. Send and receive
+ * failures are considered fatal and restart (disconnected, reconnect) of the
+ * connection is required.
+ *
+ * All functions are blocking on their specific action. Create/Connect wait for
+ * the other end of the connection, send waits for there to be room in the OS
+ * buffers, recv waits for something to read from OS buffers.
+ *
+ * While more than 2 process are able to read from same connection
+ * (read: named pipes), THIS IS *HIGHLY* INADVISABLE, as there are no guarantees
+ * about data interleaving in such case.
+ *
+ *
+ *                             Single-file Usage
+ *
+ * Define "EZIPC_IMPL" before this header inclusion into any *.c file to get
+ * the implementation code injected into said .c file. Compile and run.
+ *
+ *
+ *                                 Examples
+ *
+ * See files server.c, client.c, and common.h for a simple usage example.

+ * See bellow for specific function descriptions.
+ *
+ *
+ *                                Compliance
+ *
+ * This code adheres to C99 standard, and was tested with following command:
+ * > $ gcc -std=c99 -Wall -Wextra -pedantic
+ *
+ *
+ *                               Known Issues
+ *
+ *  1. When "server" abruptly disconnects "client" gets SIGPIPE "broken pipe"
+ *     signal, which is annoying because it would be way better to just return
+ *     false from last called function and perror() for information.
+ *
+ *     Workaround: "client" can insert a signal handler and have a callback, or
+ *                 accept quick death as a positive.
+ *
+ *
+ *                                 Changelog
+ *
+ * v1.2 - ezi_recv() now fails on receiving a size of 0 bytes
+ * v1.1 - C++ support (extern and void* casts)
+ * v1   - release
