<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#module-pipes" title="pipes: A Python interface to Unix shell pipelines. (Unix)"><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pipes</span></code></a> module defines a class to abstract the concept of a <em>pipeline</em>
— a sequence of converters from one file to another.</p>
<p>Because the module uses <strong class="program">/bin/sh</strong> command lines, a POSIX or compatible
shell for <a class="reference internal" href="os.html#os.system" title="os.system"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">os.system()</span></code></a> and <a class="reference internal" href="os.html#os.popen" title="os.popen"><code class="xref py py-func docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">os.popen()</span></code></a> is required.</p>
<p>The <a class="reference internal" href="#module-pipes" title="pipes: A Python interface to Unix shell pipelines. (Unix)"><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pipes</span></code></a> module defines the following class:</p>
