bfr - Pipe buffer

'bfr' maintains a buffer of data collected from stdin, emitting the data to stdout. It will both read and write at the speed each stream can handle, and allows you to set thresholds of when to start outputting and inputting again (after reaching a full buffer), the size of the buffer, as well as monitor content/throughput with an optional progress-bar. It also includes bfp, a variant especially written to play audio data using /dev/dsp.
