.B path <path>
This specifies the path of the FIFO to output to. Must be an absolute path.
If the path does not exist it will be created when mpd is started, and removed
when mpd is stopped. The FIFO will be created with the same user and group as
mpd is running as. Default permissions can be modified by using the builtin
shell command "umask". If a FIFO already exists at the specified path it will
be reused, and will \fBnot\fP be removed when mpd is stopped. You can use the
"mkfifo" command to create this, and then you may modify the permissions to
your liking.
