I want to interact with the pipe manually , but so far I can only do this in the programe,which is not very intuitive. The effect I want to achieve is a little similar to : telnet localhost 3306 tail -f file.txt Anyone get my idea? ...

To b...

Is it programmatically possible to intercept the maximize/restore event on Windows such that when you click on a minimized button on the taskbar, it asks you for a password?
