  Answer a conditional sequence pipeline chain.
     aSequenceableStarter will start as soon as this pipeline starter finishes
     IF the exit code from this pipeline is considered success (by default, an exitcode of 0)

     Arguments: 
        aSequenceableStarter - <OsProcessStarter | OsPipelineStarter | OsPipelineChainStarter>

  Answer a pipeline, or pipeline chain, that is configured to feed the output from this
     starter into the input of @aPipelineableStarter.
     The execution of this pipeline will perform the starters in parallel

     Arguments: 
        aPipelineableStarter - <OsProcessStarter | OsPipelineStarter | OsPipelineChainStarter>
     Answers:   
        <OsProcessStarter | OsPipelineStarter | OsPipelineChainStarter>
|| 
  Answer a conditional sequence pipeline.
     aSequenceableStarter will start as soon as this pipeline starter finishes
     IF the exit code from this pipeline is considered a failure code (by default, an exitcode ~= 0)

     Arguments: 
        aSequenceableStarter - <OsProcessStarter | OsPipelineStarter | OsPipelineChainStarter>

inheritError 
  Direct each process to Inherit error of the last processes starter from
     the parent VAST process stdout

     Answers:
        <OsPipelineStarter>
inheritInput 
  Inherit output of the first processes starter from
     the parent VAST process stdout

     Answers:
        <OsPipelineStarter>

pipelineClass 
  Answer the implementation class for
     an os process pipeline

     Answers:   
        <Object>
pipelineClass: 
  Set the implementation class for
     an os process pipeline

     Arguments: 
        aPipelineClass - <Object>
redirectErrorToFile: 
  Direct each process to redirect errors to @aFilenameOrPath.
     The file will be opened in atomic append mode

     Arguments:
        aFilenameOrPath - <String> or <CfsPath> file on the filesysystem
     Answers:
        <OsProcessStarter>
redirectErrorToOutput 
  Direct each process starter to merge errors with the output so  
     they are both redirected to the same location.

     Answers:
        <OsPipelineStarter>
redirectInputToFile: 
  Redirect input of the first processes starter to the @aFilenameOrPath.

     Arguments:
        aFilenameOrPath - <String> or <CfsPath> file on the filesysystem
     Answers:
        <OsPipelineStarter>
redirectInputToNull 
  Redirect input of the first processes starter to the
     OS-specific null bucket.
     Do this to ignore input

     Answers:
        <OsPipelineStarter>
redirectInputToPipe 
  Redirect input of the first process starter to a pipe.
     Use OsVastSubprocess>>outputStream to access

     Answers:
        <OsPipelineStarter>
redirectOutputToFile: 
  Redirect output of the last processes starter to the @aFilenameOrPath.
     The file will be created or truncated if it exists

     Arguments:
        aFilenameOrPath - <String> or <CfsPath> file on the filesysystem
     Answers:
        <OsPipelineStarter>
redirectOutputToFile:append: 
  Redirect ouptut to @aFilenameOrPath.

     If append is true
        The file will be opened in atomic append mode
     If append is false
        The file will be created or truncated if it exists
        and opened for writing

    Answers:
        <OsPipelineStarter>
redirectOutputToNull

     OS-specific null bucket.
     Do this to ignore output

     Answers:
        <OsPipelineStarter>
redirectOutputToPipe 
  Redirect output of the last processes starter to a pipe.
     Use OsPipeline>>outputStream to access

     Answers:
        <OsPipelineStarter>
start 
  Starts and answers a new pipeline of processes.
     Arrange stdio such that the output of process n
     is piped into the input of process n+1.
     If an exception occurs, wait for all processes to be
     killed and re-signal the exception

        <OsPipeline>
     Raises:
        <OsProcessException>
