<h1> The s6-ftrig-wait program </h1>
<p>
s6-ftrig-wait subscribes to a <a href="fifodir.html">fifodir</a> and
waits for a pattern of events to occur on this fifodir.
</p>
<h2> Interface </h2>
<pre>
s6-ftrig-wait [ -t <em>timeout</em> ] <em>fifodir</em> <em>regexp</em>
</pre>
<ul>
<li> s6-ftrig-wait subscribes to <em>fifodir</em> </li>
<li> It waits for the series of events received on <em>fifodir</em>
to match <em>regexp</em>. <em>regexp</em> must be an
<a href="https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap09.html#tag_09_04">Extended
Regular Expression</a>. </li>
<li> When the series of read events matches <em>regexp</em>,
s6-ftrig-wait prints the last event it received to stdout (one byte followed by a newline),
then exits 0. </li>
</ul>
<h2> Options </h2>
<ul>
<li> <tt>-t <em>timeout</em></tt> : if the events on <em>fifodir</em> have not
matched <em>regexp</em> after <em>timeout</em> milliseconds, print an error message on
stderr and exit 1. By default, s6-ftrig-wait waits indefinitely for a matching series
of events. </li>
</ul>
