I'm writing a new application and would be nice to have a pseudo file
showing its status, just the way that procfs does with kernel.
I'm looking for sugestions, I want to `cat' files contents and have
something similar to /proc/meminfo

First I think using named pipes, but, AFAIK, pipes would retain data
writed until someone read it, what I thought is a kind of read
hook that only show data when asked for. Here are a few requisites,

- Don't retain data
- Don't generate disk I/O
- Vanish when application stops
- Work with a simple cat or something similar..


You should have a look at fuse[1].

With that in mind I think about using unix domain sockets.. it seems to
fit all requisites, for
the fourth requisite I could use netcat, that is almost cat,

Seems god, a little overkill for so simple stuff but adds nice features, I'm taking
a look on further options..

Cheers
