It doesn't. Once the code's released in the pipe, it's got to be presumed to be crackable. What one can do, though, is take care that sensitive code doesn't get downloaded from server to client without adequate authentication/authorization procedures. At my workplace, I can use Kerberos, together with CoSign for the authentication piece, for example. |

It depends on how the script reads from the "file." If it tries to seek within the "file," the pipe will break. If it reads the whole file into memory or reads as a stream (i.e. sequentially), it might work. It may also be difficult because of AutoHotkey's lack of multi-threading support (however, see below).
Pipes support "pseudo-directories" (i.e. "\" is allowed in pipe names), but of course there needs to be something on the other end of the pipe to handle the data.
I found another use for pipes: FileExtract_ToMem(). It uses machine code in a second thread to read from the pipe while FileInstall writes to it. |

Thx for clarification. Sounds very interesting.
