[PD] a tricky question perhaps?

[Marc Lavallée]

There's also the pipeio~ object from the ext13 extensions:
http://pd.klingt.org/files/
I looked at the source code; the pipewrite~ object actually writes a wav
file to a pipe, but the piperead~ object reads data from a pipe without
checking if it's a wav stream. So you might be in luck with piperead~. 

Or you can use the shell object from the ggee extensions:
ftp://xdv.org/pub/gige/ggext/
I think version 0.24 should work.
