class redi::basic_ipstream< CharT, Traits >"
Class template for Input PStreams\&. 

Reading from an ipstream reads the command's standard output and/or standard error (depending on how the ipstream is opened) and the command's standard input is the same as that of the process that created the object, unless altered by the command itself\&.
