I must implement communication between 2 processes. I believe SimpleIPC is good for that purpose and it is well tested in a cross-platform system (Lazarus <-> ChmHelp).
Named pipes were suggested to me. I would like to know the benefits / handicaps of SimpleIPC compared to named pipes. I will have to answer such questions myself soon. fcl-process also has pipes unit and then "pipesipc" which apparently does not use pipes. (?)
