This is exactly what fcp(1) does, which is used by replica. If you want to read a virtual file however, these often don't support seeks or implement them in unexpected ways (returning one line per read rather than a buffer full). Thus running multiple reads (on the same file) only really works for files which operate as read disks - e.g. real disks, ram disks etc. -Steve
