hi barry,
i played with some C to dump the info from diald to stdout last year. there
were a few non-obvious bits to the format - i'll try dig up my code and see
what they were. And also, when diald it opens the pipe it will not wait for
a listener. Your monitoring programme must have the logging pipe opened
already! Or else diald will have been and gone by the time you open
log-pipe.
