.SH DESCRIPTION
The

is, by default, the concatenation of the argument strings separated by blanks.
The options are:
.TP
.B -p
write the message to
.I plumbfile
(default
.BR /mnt/plumb/send ).
.TP
.B -a
set the
.B attr
field of the message (default is empty).
.TP
.B -s
set the
.B src
field of the message (default is
.BR plumb ).
.TP
.B -d
set the
.B dst
field of the message (default is empty).
.TP
.B -t
set the
.B type
field of the message (default is
.BR text ).
.TP
.B -w
set the
.B wdir
field of the message (default is the current working directory of
.IR plumb ).
.TP
.B -i
take the data from standard input rather than the argument strings.
If an
.B action=
attribute is not otherwise specified,
.I plumb
will add an
.B action=showdata
attribute to the message.
