/*
 * This sample code shows how to use Libevent to read from a named pipe.
 * XXX This code could make better use of the Libevent interfaces.
 *
 * XXX This does not work on Windows; ignore everything inside the _WIN32 block.
 *
 * On UNIX, compile with:
 * cc -I/usr/local/include -o event-read-fifo event-read-fifo.c \
 *     -L/usr/local/lib -levent
