passthru/test/cat.js

Spawns a child process attached to parent's stdin, stdout and stderr. Inspired by PHP's passthru().

var abort = setTimeout(function() {
    console.error('Timeout reached, aborting.');
    process.exit(1);
}, 1000);

var passthru = require('..');
passthru('cat', function(err) {
    if (err) throw err;
    clearTimeout(abort);
});
