+DEBUG=1 env var enables debugging output.
+CROSS=1 hooks up two processes, 2nd of which has one line of output per line of input, expected by the first, which starts off the communication. crosses stdin/stderr of cmd1 and cmd2 line by line (both must flush on newline and output. cmd1 initiates the conversation (sends the first line). default: attempts to cross stdin/stdout of c1 and c2 directly (via two unidirectional posix pipes created before fork).
+SERIAL=1: (no parallelism possible) but lines exchanged are logged if DEBUG.
+if SNAKE then stdin -> c1 -> c2 -> c1 -> stdout.
+if PIPE then stdin -> c1 -> c2 -> stdout (same as shell c1|c2, but with SERIAL you can see the intermediate in real time; you could do similar with c1 | tee /dev/fd/2 |c2.
+DIRECT=1 (default) will override SERIAL=1.
+CROSS=1 (default) will override SNAKE or PIPE.
