Process Substitution
Process substitution is supported on systems that support named
pipes (FIFOs) or the /dev/fd method of naming open files. It
takes the form of <(list) or >(list). The process list is run
with its input or output connected to a FIFO or some file in
/dev/fd. The name of this file is passed as an argument to the
current command as the result of the expansion. If the >(list)
form is used, writing to the file will provide input for list.
If the <(list) form is used, the file passed as an argument
should be read to obtain the output of list.
When available, process substitution is performed
simultaneously with parameter and variable expansion,
command substitution, and arithmetic expansion.
