I cannot find Base.Pipe in the doc. Am I missing something, or is it actually missing from the doc?

On a similar note, where do I learn more on pipes, streams and IO besides the doc?

See [Improve documentation for process interaction using pipes · Issue #24810 · JuliaLang/julia · GitHub](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/24810) and links therein. `Base.Pipe` also has a docstring you can access from the REPL, but it’s not included in the manual.
