The document is a C program that implements a simple FIFO (named pipe) communication system for sending and receiving messages. It defines two main functions, 'snd' for sending messages and 'rcv' for receiving them, while also handling command-line arguments to determine the operation mode. The program attempts to read an environment variable 'FIFOPATH' and uses it as the FIFO path for communication.
