31     * Normally, the server channel has priority, with the display process
32     * checking it frequently for new data. However, when the display process
33     * makes a request for attention (DR_ATTEN), the server will finish its
34     * current operations and flush its buffers, sending an acknowledge
35     * message (DS_ACKNOW) when it's done. This then allows the
36     * display process to send a long request to the holodeck server.
37     * Priority returns to normal after the following request.

50     * The display process is started with three arguments. The first argument
51     * is the short name of the holodeck file, appropriate for window naming, etc.
52     * The second and third arguments are the file descriptor numbers assigned to
53     * the server's standard output and input, respectively. The stdin and stdout
54     * of the display process are used for normal communication with the server,
55     * and are connected to pipes going each way. It is entirely appropriate
56     * for the display process to borrow the server's stdin and stdout for reading
57 gregl 3.8 * and writing user commands from the list in rhdriver.h. If standard input
58 gregl 3.6 * is not available for reading, then a descriptor of -1 will be passed.
59     * The standard output will always be available for writing, though it
60     * may go to /dev/null.
