Your problem seems to be unfamiliarity with this operating-system-specific

I need to get R reading from a fifo. I want it to block till there is some
data in the fifo, consume what input it gets there, do some thing with it
then loop back and block again.
Very simple. Yes? No.
The example in the documentation works OK..
zz <- fifo("foo-fifo", "w+")
