Summary: pix_write to a PPM stream

Initial Comment:
I would very much like if pix_write could write successive frames to a PPM stream.  This would let me to do things like:


mkfifo stream.ppm &&
pd -nogui -lib Gem -open my-rendering-patch.pd &
cat stream.ppm |
ppmtoy4m ... |
y4mscaler ... |
mpeg2enc ...


At the moment I'm rendering to multiple TIFF files, which takes a vast amount of temporary disk space, and is more complicated to encode later.
