[Xastir] pipe as TNC device?

[Jason KG4WSV]

I'm trying to multiplex some serial streams across a single serial
link to cut down on cabling between the rigs and the computer (or
eliminate cables entirely with bluetooth).

One idea would be MKISS, but we don't have MKISS support in xastir yet.

Another idea is a deamon that demuxes the streams, then feads each
stream to a named pipe.

My question is this:  if I use this named pipe as the device special
file name in a TNC interface configuration, will xastir behave
correctly?
