In this case, I was hoping "pipe" would refer to the redirection of
output from the child processes to a separate custom function, but
I can see that duplication != redirection. Maybe something like
"parse_child_output" or "parse_output" would make sense, however,
I didn't want to imply with that name that the only functionality is to
parse output. Besides that, I don't really have any other ideas of
what I can name it...
